On the subject of Bill Cosby...
the only reason he's not in jail right now is because although he's been sentenced, his lawyers can still make an appeal.
If his appeal gets overturned, THEN and only then will he trade his sweaters for an orange jumpsuit.
The only way he might get any mercy at all is his age, his declining mental health, or if he pays through the nose for some minimum security deal like Martha Stewart got.

So did I, and my connection with him goes back way further than the Cosby Show.

Sesame Street, Electric Company, Fat Albert. If you were a child of the 70's, this was your Holy Trinity.

In the mid 60's, he had a string of stand-up albums that were untouchable. Despite the title, "To Russel, My Brother, Whom I Slept With", there is nothing dirty here. But it's a side long piece about two brothers having to sleep in the same room (like my brother and me).
If you're able to separate the comedy from the crime, this is 21 minutes of laughter that will make your sides ache.

Just as noteworthy, 1966 album "Wonderfulness", with tales of tonsils, go-karts, and a monster chicken heart.

I like to dream and differ from the hollow lies.

This is the dawning of the rest of our lives... on holiday.
