RIP Andy Griffith

Before I get started today, I do realize it has been a long while since I've posted any sort of blog here. Recently I've been content to post random songs that come to mind on the page on Google+. I guess you could consider it slacking on my part. I apologize.

Oddly enough though, it is death that has brought me back here with the post for today. Yes death. But not just any death, my friends. The death of one of television's greats, Andy Griffith.

As many of you know, Andy Griffith was an American actor and comedian, best known for his roles in shows and movies such as A Face in the Crowd, Matlock, and his namesake, The Andy Griffith Show. Many of his roles in shows were well past our time, including mine. But I have to admit, I did rather enjoy watching the old reruns of The Andy Griffith Show.

So, I leave you today with the well known theme song to that show. And Mr. Griffith, do enjoy your trip down to the fishin' hole. It'll definitely be the best one you've ever laid eyes on!

Well, with that, I bid you good day everyone. I will try to start posting more too by the way. Here's your more info links. ;P
