Checking CNN and FOX. Nothing. MSNBC is way out in front on this one. I imagine it's intentional. Bob Hope had a very long relationship with NBC. The news was probably provided to that network first.

CNN is even conducting a live interview with someone in their Los Angeles studio..something on Child Molester being released from prison.....
still no mention of Bob Hope, not even on their news scroll.

My brother saw him at one of his Christmas shows in Vietnam. Bob Hope publicly stood up for the soldiers and their families when most of the rest of Hollywood did everything to tear us down. Remember the Academy Awards when some radical swine got an Oscar for his pro-communist documentary called Hearts and Minds and Bob Hope and Frank Sinatra immediately came out with a public disclaimer? It took guts to stand up against the prevailing views in the weirdo crapital of the world. May Godspeed Bob Hope on his journey to Heaven.

Nuts. Well, I can't say I didn't see this coming.

Thanks for the memory
Of things I can't forget, journeys on a jet
Our wond'rous week in Martinique and Vegas and roulette
How lucky I was
And thanks for the memory
Of summers by the sea, dawn in Waikiki
We had a pad in London but we didn't stop for tea
How cozy it was
Now since our breakup I wake up
Alone on a gray morning-after
I long for the sound of your laughter
And then I see the laugh's on me
But, thanks for the memory
Of every touch a thrill, I've been through the mill
I've lived a lot and learned a lot, you loved me not and still
I miss you so much
Thanks for the memory
Of how we used to jog even in a fog
That barbecue in Malibu, away from all the smog
How rainy it was
Thanks for the memory
Of letters I destroyed, books that we enjoyed
Tonight the way things look, I need a book by Sigmund Freud
How brainy he was
Gone are those evenings on Broadway
Together we'd go to a great show
But now I begin with the Late Show
And wish that you were watching, too
I know it's a fallacy
That grown men never cry, baby, that's a lie
We had our bed of roses, but forgot that roses die
And thank you so much
