Sadly, the Hippy Dippy Weatherman is now giving weather reports in Heaven.

RIP, George.

never speak ill of the dead, you might only make it to 70. At the rate things are going you won't even get to collect your social security.
I can remember seeing George on the tonight show with Johnny Carson. He was hilarious. He got a bit bitter in his later years and I found his humor to be lacking.

71?? Nah, that's not old. I work in a building with many in their 90s, one lady is 103.

To lose George at 71 is a shame. He could have had another good 20 or so.

RIP, Cardinal Glick.
