Y’ever notice how some people stay on television when they should have retired years ago?

"I thought he was dead."

He's been dead for a long time but his eyebrows just kept on keeping on.

He’s retiring to spend more time cultivating his eye brows...

60 Minutes is still #1 among the patrons of America’s nursing homes...

Does anyone remember when 60 minutes wasn’t a propaganda loudspeaker for the democrat party? Does anyone remember when they played it straight down the middle exposing both the right and the left?

Neither do I.

Here’s an Andy Rooney segment for you.

“I’m old. I like things the way they used to be. I don’t like new-fangled contraptions. I generally support FDR-era policies. Did I mention that I’m old? Andy Rooney. 60 Minutes”

If you listen to his commentaries you know that it doesn’t make a difference.

I thought he’d died 4 years ago. Of course, I haven’t watched 60 minutes for about 10 years, so I wouldn’t know.

Yep! Point / Counterpoint.

That was the model for the Dan Akroyd / Jane Curtain Weekend Update news skit on Saturday Night Live:

Jane, you ignorant slut!

Guy is in his 90s and has spoken of retiring for a while now. No surprise here. We all loved his Grandpa Simpson rants. “Computers suck. I used my trusty typewriter for 60 years and it never broke on me or got obsolete in 3 years.” Eventually he broke down and admitted computers were better (no doubt after discovering Internet pornography).

My prediction is that he’ll be dead in a month. Retirement usually kills these kind of guys.
