    RIP Harry Morgan




    Go get 'em, Officer Gannon!
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

    R.I.P.

    Damn, I'm old enough to remember that...
    "If the Republicans will stop telling lies about the Democrats, we will stop
    telling the truth about them." - Adlai Stevenson (1900-1965)
    “I’m not liberal/conservative, I’m anti-idiotarian.”
    At some point in the last 20 years, the left moved to the center, and the right moved into a mental institution

    I just heard this on the way home. A very sad day. I remember him in Pete and Gladys back in the 50s. Also very good opposite Webb. He was a very funny guy and he will be missed. One of my favorite M*A*S*H episodes was the one where Frank ran over Potters' jeep with a tank. The Col. went over and delivered the Coup de gra'ce to the jeep with his .45. Old calv never dies.

    RIP


    ETA I also heard that Roy Orbisons wife passed today, as well. 23 years to the day that Roy died. RIP Barbara

    December Bride, Spring Byington, (sp?) was the original series. Pete and Gladys were the crazy neighbors. P&G was born from the December Bride series.

    Watching an episode of MASH now in honor of Mr. Morgan. MASH was the first sitcom I watched as a kid, in reruns of course. :D It's still a classic.

    -Before Harry Morgan was a cast as a regular on MASH, he appeared in an earlier episode as a supporting episode as a different character.

    -Col. Potter's horse's name was Sophie.

    -Col. Potter was from Missouri and had one daughter and a grandson; a no good son-in-law too.

    Any other random facts about the good Col. Potter? No cheating, off the top of your head only. :)

    Unfortunately, Harry Morgan had at least one instance of domestic abuse, but I'm sure she deserved it. :P (kidding!) RIP Harry, congrats on the long successful life.

    I'll always remember the "musical number" General Steele wanted that enlisted man to perform at Hawkeye's court hearing...... his rendition of "Mississippi Mud" was hilarious! ....loved it!
    Why,driving into a brick wall at 60 miles per hour, would I expect it not to hurt!
