I'll take 'Deceased Celebrity Game Show Hosts for 10'. Will St. Peter make Alex buy a vowel?

He does not need to buy a vowel, besides that is a different game show. [8|]

Holy moley - Connery and Trebek leave us within a week of each other. Gone to that big game show in the sky:

[:(] Sad to see him go.

When my son was young he loved to watch, so we all watched with him. He texted us yesterday when he found out.
The SNL skits were always a hoot. Glad you posted the one with Sean Connery in it. Classic.

It sucks seeing icons of my past leaving.

Makes me feel old. Sad thing is, I am. Always worried it might be my turn next to not wake up the next day.

I've been watching Dean Martin Celebrity Roasts. I often wonder if anyone on the videos are still here.

And the younguns, don't even know the names in most cases.
