Boyd is dead? ok, I missed that! dang!

edit:
did some R&D on Boyd. Shitty, I liked the grumpy old moose on the tv, too bad he packed it in a bit early.

 

[fishhuntcutwood]

Yeah I thought that too. What'd he die of?

 

[Paul B]

apparenty he fell in January and was hospitalized, as well as a long term diabetic. but they dont really spell it out on Wiki.

Boyd's myspace

 

[RaisedByWolves]

When I heard about Boyd they werent saying much.



The grumpy old fart, and I say that with the utmost respect as I hope to be an old fart some day, got it from chainsmoking in shops all his life.



Oils, grease, cleaners on your cigs aint good.

With a sense of humor too. Remember Wayne's World, "Get me a real actor.."

R.I.P.

 

[fishhuntcutwood]

He was one of the good ones.

He wasn't your stereotypical hollywood type at all.

Wow he really hung in there.

Jim Hager of Hee Haw fame

Many of you are too young to remember this show, but it was one of my favorites when I was a kid.

[MasterBlaster]

I remember the show, don't remember him.

 

[SkwerI]

Butch, you don't remember the Hager twins?

 

[MasterBlaster]

Nope.

 

[cybergeek23851]

I remember the show, don't remember him.

Butch, you don't remember the Hager twins?

Is it scary that I, being a young'un and all, actually remembered him from the Friday night reruns?

 

[Cobleskill]

I remember the Hagar twins and the good A in the early 70's. Out of this world.
