IN MEMORY OF ED MC MAHON
For decades he was the late nigth king of shows Johnny Carson's side kick. Everybody in the business had to know him in order to get to the top guy , Johnny. They're relationship was trully almost like brothers. Johnny served in the Navy, Ed was a Bombing pilot in the U.S.M.C. , later on he became a Brigadier General in the California national Guard, in other words, he was a real RAMBO , but that never went to his head, he treated everyone with courtesy and gentleness. He help forge the fame of many talented kids in his " Star Search " , he did a handfull of movies, buuuuut, he was known more for his integrity & decency. The late actor Fernando Lamas hit it rigth on the money one nigth in the " Tonigth Show ", when he spoked of ed, he stated ; " For years you have greeted everyone here, most of them turned their backs on you when they started talking to Johnnie , as if you weren't anybody. To me those people showed their nothing but social trash ". Lamas was well known for being brutally honest and sincere, that's why I liked him , he was like Steve McQueen, Clint Eastwood, Robert Conrad to name a few. Anybody who was anybody knew him, YET, few came to his aid when he was dying of cancer, Donald Trump was one of them , he saved him from loosing his house. I never had the Honor of meeting him, Knowing people that knew him doesn't count. Wherever your at ed, God bless ya and thank you for being the way you were.
