The host of Press Your Luck, my favorite game show growing up, died yesterday in a plane crash. Peter Tomarken and the Whammies entertained my younger brother and I every day. Click here to visit a great tribute site. Ah, the memories!
"Big bucks! No more Whammies.... and.... STOP!" It was classic mindless muttering, in the days before Who Wants To Be A Millionaire and the "well, it can't be C because I was born in Utah in 1956..."
"Big bucks? I'll show you big bucks!" [Whammy then brings out an elk].
No more Whammies, indeed.

Yeah - saddened to read that! It's a great show - love the game show network! :)
I love your blog design. Keep up the good work girl.
Died about 20 miles from me, very close to where we went to the beach.
