Does Keith Jackson know?
I just dodged a golf ball of his on the fairway. I'll let him know. I'm sure he'll let Nelson Mandela and Elvis know.
make sure Tupac knows as well
Somebody posted this in yesterday's thread, and it was really interesting:
I upvoted you, well because, Hotel Putingrad, but I didn't click on the link.
Samesies!
And sorry for all the premature RIPs. Now, RIP.
Looks like you need a RIP there, too, RGard.
I'm undead.
I just want to give my third RIP pre-condolences for Saturday, in case this is another false alarm.
Classic Wally episode:
Wally wants to get a weekend job so that he can have some pocket money without always having to ask his father for it. Wally manages to get a job as a soda jerk at Mayfield Drugstore. Wally, already a popular guy, becomes even more popular with the girls who think he looks even cuter wearing his uniform. Eddie and Lumpy, on the other hand, neither like the fact that Wally is attracting all the girls, or that, in even having a job, he is looking more responsible to their own parents. Eddie devises a plan to make Wally look bad, using the fact that Mary Ellen Rogers is having a slumber party that evening. Wally exacts his own form of revenge.
Wally exacts his own form of revenge.
Are you really going to leave us hanging like that? You cruel, cruel person.
(I'm guessing he laces Eddie's soda with LSD).
No, mescaline 😵😳.
He saved the window pane for himself 👍.
Actually, Eddie laced Wally's weed with embalming fluid.
He's having a rough week
Hopefully they can revive him again in time for the weekend.
UNC beat me to it.
most of us only get to die once. wally got to die twice. absolute legend.
rip
but...how many of us get to really live?

I laughed at the title and I really shouldn't have.
Weekend at Wally's
Variety is the better source. Every day is precious. RIP Wally.
Bravo to so many of you with the really funny comments. I was really laughing at some of these.
Schrodingers Wally
Reminds me of Monte Python:
“Bring out your dead”
“But I’m not dead yet”
Wife made the premature announcement. RIP Tony!
Somebody posted this when I thought Ray Lane was dead but he was still alive.
RIP Tony Dow. I grew up watching Leave it to Beaver re-runs. Great show.
Gee Beave, its not so great when you have to die twice. All kidding aside, RIP Mr. Dow. You were the big brother that all us kids wished we had.
I have repeatedly killed a few Beavers in my prime.
