    To quote my 14yo when he just found out "that sucks".

    My kids stumbled across "Golden Girls" on one of the cable channels about a month or so ago. They wound up putting it on TIVO and part of our nightly calm down before bed is we watch an episode. The laughs are still good, the wit wonderful and issues relevant some 20 years after the series started. Pretty amazing.

    Thanks for being a friend indeed. Nice post.
