It’s been a few days, so I figure it’s ok to start bashing the deceased. How odd is it that the obit in the Times was written by someone who himself died three years ago? I realize that news services prepare obits ahead of time so that they’ll be prepared, but still. The fact that they didn’t have to edit an obit that was three years old means that the guy wasn’t doing a whole hell of a lot for the past few years. All kidding aside, I have to agree. The man was just not funny and neither was Victor Borge.
