Bummer.

Signifying monkey, stay up in your tree. Always lying and signifying, but you better not monkey with me.

Re: Jim Nabors DEAD
Yep. I said bummer because it bums me out. Jim Nabors type people have always made me smile, made me long for something better. Wish I could live eternity in a Gomer and Andy environment. Used to love hearing that boy sing. Been a long time since he entertained, but like I said... bummer... he’s gone away. Death is a fucking bummer. You see what I did there? Good for you.hillsy wrote:I see what you did there...RoadKing wrote:Bummer.

Re: Jim Nabors DEAD
He had an incredible voice. Never considered it "my kind of music" when I was younger, but now that my tastes have broadened to the point that the only things I don't like (I think) are disco and rap, I'll likely get some of Nabors'.
He was like Frank Fontaine (Crazy Guggenheim on Jackie Gleason). Acted like a complete nut, but kind soul, characterwise on t.v., and had incredible talent in the recording studio. That's what I call rounded.

Re: Jim Nabors DEAD
Me and John T, my best friend, were young rockers back in those days, but I cry now remembering the hours so long ago we spent getting drunk on Bud and listening to that wonderful singing voice. Don’t know where John T got that music but I’m glad he did. At first I made fun of what I was hearing, but I changed my mind big time.tabasco wrote:He had an incredible voice.

Nabors married his partner of 38 years, Stan Cadwallader, at Seattle, Washington's Fairmont Olympic Hotel on January 15, 2013, a month after same-sex marriage became legal in Washington.[55][56][57] Although he had been closeted before this, his sexual orientation was not completely secret; for instance, Nabors brought his then-boyfriend Cadwallader along to his Indy 500 performance in 1978.[58]

Yes, he was gay. I was shocked to hear this, but looking back I can see it now.tabasco wrote:I just saw in the paper that Nabors is survived by his "husband". Eh .... whatever ....
