Yeah, I guess he lived 3,420 inch-years.

S.O.B. still owes me forty bucks.



RIP.

Looks like no one will get to wish Willard Scott a happy 100th.

RIP @ 87.

Willard Scott RIP longtime Today show weatherman. Original Bozo the Clown, and inventor and first Ronald McDonald clown burger joint clown. He was 87 good long life to a good man.

https://www.today.com/news/willard-scott-dead-t152927

Willard Scott
The origin of Ronald McDonald involves Willard Scott (at the time, a local radio personality who also played Bozo the Clown on WRC-TV in Washington, D.C., from 1959 until 1962), who performed using the moniker "Ronald McDonald, the Hamburger-Happy Clown" in 1963 on three separate television spots. These were the first three television ads featuring the character.[3]

Scott, who went on to become NBC-TV's Today Show weatherman, claims to have created Ronald McDonald according to the following excerpt from his book Joy of Living:

At the time, Bozo was the hottest children's show on the air. You could probably have sent Pluto the Dog or Dumbo the Elephant over and it would have been equally as successful. But I was there, and I was Bozo ... There was something about the combination of hamburgers and Bozo that was irresistible to kids ... That's why when Bozo went off the air a few years later, the local McDonald's people asked me to come up with a new character to take Bozo's place. So, I sat down and created Ronald McDonald.[3]

At the time, Scott was working for Oscar Goldstein, the Washington, DC, area McDonald's franchisee, and numerous sources describe Scott's role as only playing the part of Ronald McDonald, while giving credit for the creation of the mascot to Goldstein and his ad agency.

No Smuckers for you.

RIP Willard

I know how you're feeling I lost my eldest Sis in June and my Mother in September.

Sorry for your loss, buddy. May she RIP.

Sorry to hear Hog. Prayers to your family.

Thoughts and prayers Hog.

Sorry for your loss.

Shit man. Condolences.

Seems like I've been to too many funerals lately.

All the best to you and yours, bud.

Thankyou everyone. Gotta drive 8 hours to Fort Smith Tuesday, Funeral Wednesday. My Dad was a big Cowboys fan so I really wish he was here for the game tomorrow. I guess now at least Mom is there to gripe at him as he watches from the press box in the sky.

Sorry for your loss. Losing your Mom is something that hurts forever. Best wishes to you and your family.

Sorry to hear that. Losing moms is tough. It hits you in the feels no doubt.
Take care

Sorry for your loss.

He always seemed like a funny person. The guy who made neighborhood gatherings fun.

I'm sorry to hear, Hog. Best wishes to you and your family.

God rest your mom soul praying for you.

SO YOUNG! SO MUCH LIFE LEFT TO LIVE! RIP :deevee:

I seen where Lee Elder passed away over the weekend.

He was the 1st African American golfer to play in the Masters.

No, no, no. This is Lee Sung. So-yung is a South Korean swimmer and he appears to be very much alive.

Coincidentally, So's cousin Lee Yung was a longtime rival of Lee Elder. Both of whom, coincidentally, bear an uncanny resemblance to the late great Olympic shot putter Eric Gulpilil Ridjimiraril Dalaithngu.

Here a pic of the three of them sharing a bottle of Crystal Pepsi at the gift shop at the Pontiac Silverdome the night that Hulk Hogan slammed Andre the Giant at Wrestlemania III:

Eric is the bald one.

Is Elder related to Yung? And which one's older?
