Did anyone else notice that when George Burns hit 100, it was a big ass deal. With Bob Hope, nothing....That's a shame...

There was a lot of coverage on tv. So much that at first I thought he had died then, until I sat down and paid attention to the shows.

NBC has just broke away from the TODAY show for the special report. I'm sure we'll be hearing more...he JUST died last night afterall.
So sad but at the same time he lived such a WONDERFUL life full of service to others. People can't live forever, but he sure lived a long time 
At least we have the memories and smiles to remember him by!

I'm sad that he passed away, but I'm bothered that it is the only thing on CNN. Sometimes I think that TV news is too infatuated with Entertainment television.

Bob Hope certainly leaves a great legacy of classic comedy moments that will never be duplicated. A true American treasure.

I can't think of a single person that has done more for the war-fighting capability of this country.
Leslie Towne Hope, you were a great man. You did more in 100 years then most of us could do in a 1,000.
My Jr. year of high school I did a 7 page term paper on Bob Hope, in which I learned all about his wonderful life and all he did.
Day is done,
gone the sun,
From the hills,
from the lake,
From the skies.
All is well, safely rest,
God is nigh.
