I hear ya, John! I have always been a big Bob Hope fan -- even dragged my
[then-boyfriend, now hubby] to see Bob at Michigan State University back in
the late 60's.

We recently watched a Bob Hope retrospective, and I commented that I could
*not* believe that nothing was shown about his immense contribution to the
morale of the US armed forces -- to my relief, the program was an hour
longer than I thought, and the last entire hour was devoted, as Bob Hope
himself was, to the US armed forces.

As much as I'll miss Bob Hope, I find a bit of comfort that he'll have
Gregory Peck & Katharine Hepburn ready to greet him.

The dictionary folks may have to re-define "class act" IMHO.
