God Bless the man. The world lost an awful lot of it luster without him.
He serviced his time and desires his rest

Just an aside, our friend AB3 (Schoonertrash) is an AB on a Ship named
after Bob Hope

One, of the many, of his great saying was, " I'm so old, they've
cancelled my blood type"

Wouldn't it be better to have thanked him when he was alive?

I think everyone did.

Maybe, but he was a prime jerk. He treated his "underlings"
in a terrible fashion. He was certainly no prince.

People thanked him plenty. He viewed anyone of a lessor stature
with contempt. He felt he deserved to be eulogized as though he
was a god. He wasn't.

Who gives a hoot about Bob Hope? I can't recall that
he ever sailed.

I agree with you Jonathan. Bob Hope was as highly
overated as any comedian could ever be. He was
one of those people who thought he was better
than everybody else. He would have nothing to
do with the common foot soldier and would only
be seen with high ranking officers. The man was
a loser and a fraud in my opinion. Good riddance
to the old *******, I say.
