One of my idols died today.

Johnny Carson died today at 79. I loved to watch him as a child, and have already missed his presence in the media for years. I hope that everyone gets a chance to see recordings of him. He was an amazing entertainer and an amazing man. I don't want to write to much about it, because I have more to say than I think anyone wants to hear, but I will mention this one thing: Johnny Carson is the instigator of the worlds longest sustained audience laughter on television. I have many people I look up to, but Johnny Carson was close to the top of the heap.

Thank goodness America is in the process of creating some new Idols.
