    I didn't know he was a mortal.
    A sad day, I enjoyed his musings very much.

    I made sure to watch his farewell show. He said he thought about death a lot and he didn't want to die.

    What an incredibly funny, witty man. I always loved watching him.

    So sad, he will be missed.

    It is a very sad day for US.
    After all, who is there now to monitor the shrinking size of Mars Bars??

    Now THATs a <inappropriate adjective deleted> statement if I ever heard one. He loved life and loved his job and didn't want to retire.
