Ralph Furley; Swinging Bachelor in the Sky

Aw, come on, how could I NOT comment on the passing of Don Knotts? I loved him. I know that he's always going to be best remembered as Barney Fife, but for me, Don is (and always will be) Ralph Furley, the most macho bachelor Three's Company ever had--with the possible exception of Larry, of course. That show will probably never get the respect it deserves because it was so corny, but I'll tell you this much; it made me laugh, each and every single time I watched it. So in my book, a world without Mr. Furley and Jack Tripper is a much, much sadder place.
It seems to me that the good always go too early... even if they happen to live to 81. Thanks for all the laughs, Don. Tell Jack that Greedy Gretchen has been asking about him...
