The passing of Robert Goulet, dead at 73.  As fine an example of a Americanuk as there ever was.

| Haunt is a good word. RIP Robert. A very personable entertainer. I saw him in Syracuse quite a while ago. Good show by a nice guy, he seemed to really enjoy performing without being a dick.

Well, since it's Halloween I though "haunt" would be appropriate. Although I was never a fan, I remember him as being a stand up guy without the scandelous BS you come to associate with most personalities.

He used to live here in Edmonton in the 50's worked as a DJ on the local radio station then moved to local variety show on TV then went off to Toronto to fame and fortune and Camelot....

Sean, we won't hold that against him since.  Over the years, many great entertainers have come from Canada. I guess this (and some babies to boot) is an example of what you can achieve while you're stuck inside during the long, cold Canadian winters. Sean, didn't you have your own TV show at one time? Sorry, but I don't remember what it was called.
