The End of an Era

I have to admit, it really was sad to Bob retire from the Price is Right today. I've been watching the show since as far back as I can remember. Don't you remember how exciting it was to get to stay home from school and watch CBS at 11 am? With the stupid Liberty Medical/Wilford Brimley and Colonial Penn advertisements, all promoting a happy healthy life. We watched it every day that we could in college, and I have been recording every day since I have had my own place (and throughout the nearly six months that Giles and I have been married). It's too bad to see such a legend retire, but at least he can go out while he is still young.

Here's to you Bob. If you're ever in Detroit, I'd love to play a pricing game.
