He was super cool in both of his "iconic" shows. He is still cool! I always smile thinking of Peter Pan as his mother.

Just as you're not a football fan, I'm for sure not a TV fan, (as I don't even have a TV set)… That said, this seems to me to be an outstanding limerick for the contest. It really flows well, and that last line is a real understated killer, methinks. G.L. in the contest. :) gw

I like that too. That's where the phrase" Who Shot JR" came from:-) Alexis

You guys didn't get " I Dream OF Jeannie? It was popular over here. But I must admit I fell in love with it due to re runs. I wasn't born yet when it debuted. I appreciate that you stopped by:-) Alexis
