MERV GRIFFIN, RIP

He passed away this weekend after a return bout with cancer: http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=D8QVIV803&show_article=1 Merv, Johnny Carson, Jack Paar all inspired me to get into this business... never missed their shows, even Griffin's various talkshows as they morphed in new ways in the 80s and 90s. He was one of my favorite in-studio guests, and he always stayed excited, upbeat, creative and entrepeneurial. I loved the way he was active doing new business activities up to the end. He was also a big supporter of Ronald Reagan (and Nancy) and the Reagan Library. He'll be missed... while many of his TV creations live on, TFN.
