Only 79? Wow he was younger than I thought he was.

My local talker just mentioned it. He has the largest audience in Alabama.

Jim Robinson went too early, 79 is not that old...

How come Bill Clinton and George W. Bush born in the same year still be alive.

I can’t believe he’s gone. I’ve been here since before sign up dates.

He will be sorely missed.

A very nice tribute, especially considering the abuse that is heaped on GP here.
