Last week was indeed extraordinarily difficult for all of us, with not only the death of Ed McMahon but the total absence of stunned mourners "HEY-O"ing in the streets, any increase in sales of Ed McMahon memorabilia, or even any speculation about who will be America's next guffawing stooge. Budweiser and Alpo, two products which McMahon was proud to represent, have issued no comment of which I am aware. Johnny Carson has said nothing, nor is he likely to.
I therefore urge you at this time to Google Ed McMahon, HE WHO HAWED, read everything you can about him, and consider whether you could possibly waste even more time this week paying attention to the deaths of seriously pathetic celebrities you really won't miss.
I got to meet him once. And I'm glad. He asked me a question on the radio, and I stammered until his only choice was to move on to someone else.
