"And now, a few minutes with Guitar_Raph"

Have you ever really noticed that for over 33 years from 1978-2011, CBS's 60 Minutes would always end each show with a small segment called A Few Minutes With Andy Rooney. He told it like it was, complained over little matters & so forth. Some find his features intersting while others thought he was an annoying, whiny person. Even Joe Piscopo impersonated him on Saturday Night Live. He was also a true football fan, having season tickets to see the New York Giants play.

Sadly enough, after doing his final minutes on October 2 (my birthday), a month later, Andy Rooney has died @ the age of 92. 60 Minutes will never be the same. He will be missed.

(ticking clock)

"I'm whoever & we'll see you next time with another edition of 60 Minutes."
