So long, Andy.

Saddened to learn just now about the death of Andy Rooney.

Thinking about his career and his place in the American media, I am amazeds me how nasty and spiteful today's commentator can seem, even when compared to a petty, prickly old curmudgeon who's hobby and livelyhood seemed to be complaining about things and speaking his completely unfiltered opinion. I certainly can't say that I always agreed with him, but he'd always make me either laugh or think, and often enough managed to do both. 

He will be missed.
