Good-bye, Tony Randall

I was sorry to hear of Tony Randall's death. I always enjoyed listening to him in TV interviews or late-night talk shows.

Secretly, I always hoped that he was a gay man. But I find out from Blog of Death that he was married to his college sweetheart for 54 years. And then, to prove he was really heterosexual, he married (at the age of 75) someone 50 years his junior, and proceeded to have two children before he was 80. Where would those little souls be without Viagra?

Blog of Death quotes Tony on funerals:
Funerals should be planned as a celebration of life and "a touch of humor doesn't hurt a bit."
I'll drink to that!
