My wife's uncle (her mom's brother) was just talking about this on the phone this evening to us. My mother-in-law was saddened by this. She and her brother grew up and were schoolyard pals with Mr. Roberts. He visited their home to play during their childhood years in Waycross, Ga. Both she and her brother have mentioned it many times that he was a fine person.

RIP, Mr. Roberts.

The end of a legacy, Bonanza had a lot of young actors, in seemingly good health pass.  There is a Texas band who does a tribute to Bonanza, and i tried real hard to find it, but did not. RIP all in the bonanza series, I too enjoyed and watched them all.

Wait, I found it. Enjoy.

You know, I have vague (of course ;)) memories of actually being stoned enough to enjoy that song. However, that was 25 years ago and now I have to ask, WTF?

I'll take it for you. I grew up in South Florida in the 1980's. Hell, I had a white linen "Italian waiters jacket" bought from Bannana Republic back when they still had the catalog and used to be cool. I was seen wearing loafers (sans socks) a teal T-shirt and white pleated linen pants with Ray Bans doing my level best to be Sonny Crockett. However, post high school, I did ROTC and entered the wonderfu world of random drug tests. Out went the bong, in came the keg. As Tom puts it, war on some drugs indeed. Different medium, same result. To quote our former leader, "When I was young and irresponsible, I was young and irresponsible". Or to quote the Govenator "I inhaled, exhaled and at least could do drugs right as opposed to Clinton". ;D
