R.I.P. Carl Reiner
« on: June 30, 2020, 11:03:31 AM »
Another comedy legend that couldn't get renewed for one more season:
Carl Reiner, the comedian, writer, director and actor whose contributions to the development of television comedy are rivaled by few others, died Monday night of natural causes at his home in Beverly Hills. He was 98.

Just three days before his passing, Reiner — the father of actor and director Rob Reiner — tweeted what now seems his public goodbye: “Nothing pleases me more than knowing that I have lived the best life possible by having met & marrying the gifted Estelle (Stella) Lebost – who partnered with me in bringing Rob, Annie & Lucas Reiner into this needy & evolving world.”
Science is what happens when preconception meets verification.

Besides, perhaps FET is a conspiracy too.

It is just the way it is, you understanding it doesn't concern me.

A national treasure for sure.

Hey, 98 ain't half-bad. That's a good, long life right there.

Never heard of him, but commiserations.
Life is meaningless and everything dies.
