100 years. Not a bad life.

Oh, and while I'm at it: RIP Katherine Hepburn; one of my favorite actresses.

Yeah, two long living legends. They made some social contributions too. They'll both be missed (and not likely replaced or matched).

When you remember Bob Hope, remember the many veterans he entertained. I heard a number recently (I don't remember exactly what it is but it was obscenely high) about how many WWII vets are dying every day. We are witnessing the passing of the Greatest Generation. :(

I heard today that in the Library of Congress, there are 89,000 PAGES of jokes that Bob Hope has told in his career. And I think that's just to troops on USO tours. He was a great person, great entertainer, and great patriot. RIP Bob Hope.
