eta: didn't see that 'spode already mentioned this. We've lost Schulz and Melendez...does anyone know if Giraldi is still around? If not, my childhood is officially over.
Vince Guaraldi died at age 47 in 1976. He was a great jazz composer and it was a shame for him to die so young.

Sorry about ur childhood.

Well, that explains why I couldn't find anything on him, I was spelling it wrong!

Well, then, my childhood is officially over. Good thing I still act 12 years old most of the time.

Couldn't you act at least 17? Lusting after 12 year olds is kinda sick.

When people ask how old I am, I tell them that I'm 54... but I act like I'm 12, so I figure it averages out somewhere in my 30s.

Hey pat? most of us find lusting after 17 year olds kind of creepy too. even drax thinks so. possibly for the opposite reason though.

I get a lot of comments about looking younger than my age, so often I'll respond to "how old are you?" with "I am WAY younger than I look. Yep. I'm 87 years old. Clean livin' and all that." The clean livin' is what cracks them up because, hey, it's ME!

I love it. I'm going to use that next time.

I fell in love with Paul when I saw Cool Hand Luke for the first time. It was on TV, so it couldn't have been 1967. His eyes were so beautiful. Such a marvelous talent.

Here was a great, great man: he wound up giving about $250 million to charity through his Newman's Own brand.
