My credo
the grey-t escape
not surprized actually, i remember thinking "how long...." after his last brodcast. remember charles schultz died shortly after retiring fom doing the "peanuts" cartoons. i remember watching 60 min with dad growing up. andy rooney's segment was the best part of the show. more commentators should be like him and say it like it is...

Yes, he told it like it was, even tho he often got a lot of flack about it.

Too bad there aren't more honest, straight thinking people in the public realm
in this country, esp including politicians!

60 Minutes was crap. Decades of fabricated horseshit.

Nothing against Andy Rooney.
