"I'm so glad we had this time together..."

Actor-comic Harvey Korman died today.
I'll always remember him as one of the regulars on Carol Burnett's variety show, long a staple of CBS's Saturday night lineup throughout the 1970s. And Korman was always there, singing, dancing, and of course engaging in great comic performances in all those wonderful, funny skits for which Burnett and her show were famous. Saturday nights were something to look forward to--a bowl of popcorn, the family dog sleeping near you on the couch, and the knowledge that Carol Burnett and Harvey Korman and Tim Conway and Vicki Lawrence would make you laugh.

May he rest in peace, secure in the knowledge that he made millions of peoples' lives that much more fun.
