How did I miss this?

Blogcritics.org: Belated Note On Bob Denver

Did you know that Bob Denver died? I sure didn't. He died on September 6 at age 70 from cancer. Coverage of Katrina buried (no pun intended) this story.

I remember racing home from school in the third grade so that I could watch my beloved Gilligan. I remember being so upset at Watergate because they played those proceedings instead of him and the Skipper.

Thanks, Bob, for years of fun and laughter!
