"Does it seem that Fox has lost a lot of young on-air personalities this past year?"

Who else died? And 66 isn't that young. Reminds me of an old Sherlock Holmes movie. Holmes and Watson are watching a funeral procession, and Holmes asks a bystander who the dead man was.

Bystander: Mr. MacTavish, the blacksmith. Cut down in the flower of his manhood.

Dr. Watson: Oh, a young fellow, eh?

Bystander: Yes, just 72.

Dr. Watson: 72? Flower of his manhood? Trying to be funny? Harrumph. (Walks away muttering to himself.)

When one is my age -66 does not seem old. Life expectancy is now in the 80s. Hope it’s older than that;)

I was probably reacting to Brenda Buttner;s and Terri Keenan’s deaths just this past month.
