Bob Hope passed away late Sunday Night at age 100.

I just wanted to post a small Thank You to another great man who had a great impact on not only myself, but millions and millions of people the world over.

God Bless You Bob.

Thank you, Nate. This is the second time I have first learned of the death of a great entertainer on Muppet Central. Bob Hope made a big contribution, and he will be missed. At least he was granted a long, full life. It is very sad but must also carry with it some small relief for the family, as he seemed to be very ill in his last few years. Rest in peace, Bob!

Thanks for the memories, Mr. Hope

Woke up to the news this morning. The newspeople on both CNN and MSNBC were talking about how his memorial service was going to be the biggest Hollywood has ever seen. I don't doubt it, even after his family made a press release stating that they wanted a private burial service with just his immediate family present.

Watching all of the footage from his movies and television specials that they were looping on both channels, I couldn't get the TMS episode that Hope did out of my head. I'm planning on watching it later today as a tribute to him. Now if only I could get Statler and Waldorf's closing remarks from that episode out of my head...

Aw, man!! That's not funny at all.

Bob Hope was considered by me as a man who "nose" his business, very funn-ee and witty, especially with cue cards. You could count on him to make the audience laugh, even if it was a laugh-track.

He's certainly to be missed by the throngs of comedy lovers around the world!!
