So, do you suppose that St. Peter said, "Heeere's Johnny!"

I couldn't believe it when I heard. I hadn't realized he had emphysema though.

I had a close relative die of emphysema about a decade ago. A tough way to go. I was sorry to hear the news about Johnny, I had just heard that he was still sending jokes into Letterman on a pretty regular basis.

That has got to be a horrendous way to go. My 6 year old son used to call cigarettes "sea-rats" when he was 4 or 5 years old. They are doing a great job at school teaching the kids to not start smoking. Our neighbor died this past summer from lung cancer due to smoking. About 2 weeks after his death, our son said to our neighbors wife "he must have wanted to die, he had all those cigarettes". Of course, I wanted to die after he said that!

Oh dear, Newfygirl! Geez. Well, hopefully she understood how little children can be.
I do remember Johnny Carson with a ciggie in his right hand just about always. Didn't think twice about it when I was a kid. Poor guy; I wonder if he ever managed to get the monkey off his back.
Rest in Peace, Johnny Carson.
