Andy Rooney
« on: November 05, 2011, 08:17:08 am »
I was sad to learn this morning that my favorite curmudgeon, Andy Rooney, has died. I watched his last commentary on "60 Minutes" not long ago and thought how much I was going to miss him. Now I am really going to miss him.

I was shocked to learn of Andy's death this morning.  He seemed fine during his last appearance a month ago but he was 92 and things can happen quickly.  Rest In Peace Andy.

He must have known he was going in for surgery when he did his last broadcast.  Apparently he never recovered from the surgery and wasin the hospital for weeks.
