Part of my childhood died this week and nobody noticed..

Paul walker dies and the internet goes crazy.. Rest in peace, you'll be missed, you know all the crap I'm talking about. He was racing his hot rod and wiped out at high speed. His choice to live dangerously and he was bitten by fate. So be it..
Nelson Mandela dies and the flags end up as half mast per the presidents orders. Never mind that he was a hard core communist.. Google (how to be a good communist) by Mandela. Yes he did some good things but that doesn't make up for his apologies for saddam Hussein .

Nobody noticed that a big part of our childhood died this week.. Who am I talking about?
Bob Denver passed this week at the age of 70. Yes gilligan died this week.
Apparently you need to be in the tabloid pages for anybody to notice now days. Mary Ann was great for a young boy to watch after school too.


Rest in peace little buddy...

He died 8 years ago.

No wonder ATS is considered a laughingstock in some circles. "Deny ignorance" my furry behind! Why is this guy getting any stars at all? This is a good example of why we need negative stars.

Comparing a Nobel Peace Prize winning champion of peace and sanity to actors.

Nobody noticed? Or everyone has lives that don't revolve around a racing franchise? I've paid my respects. I would cry if it weren't so darned difficult for me to shed tears. Last time I cried was after watching "World Trade Center", and that lasted all of maybe five minutes. I wanted to when I saw him in a magazine at the store this morning. Alas, I'm sure he would understand. He lived his life, no need for ours to end on his account.

What more do you want? The world to stop turning?

His obituary was in the news paper today! Why would I check that?
The Fort Wayne journal gazette was the paper on page 4. So if I'm wrong call the paper.. Lol

What?!?

Ginger & MaryAnne are going to be very upset when they find out they have been grieving unnecessarily for years...

Dude...you really need to check your information sources. Don't take it too hard, happens to a lot of people but when it happens here you get called out instantly. Trust, but verify....and then verify again. Also, just curious why this is a medical issue or conspiracy? Actually, nevermind...

In his defense, this same thing happened last year according to the article that was posted. For some reason Bob Denver has cameo roles on the net.

I feel some serious Bob Denver memes coming out of this.

Most of ats is negativity hence (conspiracy website)
Do you prefer happy conspiracies?

Never mind that he was a hard core communist..

I find it astounding how western society (but particularly America) has been totally brainwashed by the big corporations that run capitalism that communism (and socialism) is some evil boogy man that must be stamped out and killed by the good of capitalism.

So what if he was a communist?

He led a revolution that changed the face of a country for the better by ending the apartheid, just because he also happened to have a socialist ideology does not make his achievements any less worthy in the history books.

Sometimes "negativity" is needed to help the gullible.

Dude... Even wikipedia has the correct date of death. It's not like you'd have to look very hard to fact check that...
