Bob Ross - Anyone Remember? Does anyone remember the cable TV show with Bob Ross, the painter? I am listening to a radio program that brought him up, and remember being awed, amused, soothed, and skeptical of him all at the same time. Does anyone else remember him?

He was the farming correspondant on the first paper I worked on. Nice old guy, stank of hay and belly button fluff. | |

You obviously missed the charms of the talented and soothing Mr Ross. "Always do sober what you said you'd do drunk. That will teach you to keep your mouth shut." Ernest Hemingway | |

I was using 'violently bummed by stepfather' as a euphamism for smoking marijuana too. It's the new hipster jive in Scotland. | |

He definitely had the hair style for a Supreme. "Always do sober what you said you'd do drunk. That will teach you to keep your mouth shut." Ernest Hemingway | |

I just posted a picture of him on another thread about a week ago. I can't remember why. But yes, I used to watch that show all the time when I was little.

And I also remember they did him on Family Guy. "All right, we are going to use a fan brush here and uh why don't you take some hunter green and we are going to put a happy little bush right down over here in the corner there and that'll just be our little secret and if you tell anyone that that bush is there I will come to your house and I will cut you." | |

Big, big fan of Bob Ross. I used to watch him on public TV during college in amazement...
OK, he did put me to sleep, half the time. But still... | |
