[b][color:#3333FF]Link...![/color][/b] Friend and former UNC President Bill Friday has said Andy Griffith has died, while the Dare County Sheriff's Department confirms that they rushed to his home in North Carolina this morning. The actor was best known for The Andy Griffith Show, Mayberry RFD, and Matlock and for playing Larry "Lonesome" Rhodes in Elia Kazan's A Face in the Crowd. [WITN News]

Didn't like his politics, either, but he was funny. You can roll a turd in peanuts, dip it in chocolate, and it still ain't no damn Baby Ruth.

"No Time for Sargeants" was one of my dad's all time favorite movies. I believe that is the hardest I ever saw him laugh. For that reason alone, even though I pretty much enjoyed all his works, may you rest in peace Mr. Griffith. Another fond childhood memory suffers the harsh bite of mortal reality.

These guys become rich from Hollywood, then they become liberals who know better how to spend my small income. I won't miss that at all, I'm sorry to say.
