Who?? WTF? A local game show host? That's not impressive. Thread over. Lock it up. Hall of Fame it. It's no fun anymore. He ruined his own tribute thread.

No. I don't. I think there are people who have worked in factories and coal mines every week for 50 years. Hosting a community access level quiz show is not that impressive.Tdarcos wrote:He did this every single week for over fifty years. You don't think that is impressive?lethargic wrote:Who?? WTF?

Uh, let's try again. I said he was on WRC-TV Channel 4, that's not community access, that is the NBC Afflilliate for Washington DC, owned and operated by the National Broadcasting Company, which means his show has been seen by several million people over the years.lethargic wrote:No. I don't.

Can you post pix?

Not and stay in the 10-line limit. Channel 4 and The Washington Post have excellent articles on Mac McGarry and his legacy of 50 years of television broadcasting, including that his first on-air gig was announcing the start of the Korean War:AArdvark wrote:Can you post pix?

I was in Target yesterday and took a look at Tom Clancy's latest book for which he had a co-author, where it mentions that Tom Clancy was an insurance broker (here in Maryland) who had a huge interest in military history and wanted to write a military thriller, his first book, The Hunt for Red October was a huge success, and that his books have basically defined the entire genre.
The book also mentioned that Tom Clancy died in October, 2013. I had no idea.

I can believe that one. Apparently that color photo of him is a picture of his corpse 2 years from now.

Never heard of him.
