Don Imus

[Basil]

I was never a big fan of Don Imus as a radio personality (just not my cup of tea), but I definitely respected what he did for kids with Cancer. The Imus Ranch was a few miles north of me near Ribera, New Mexico (He sold it not long ago due in part to his own heath issues). It was a place where kids with Cancer could experience ranch life as a respite from their battles with cancer.

Don Imus, 1940-2019.

Like Howard Stern, he was an acquired taste. Some if his satiric bits with his supporting casts were classics.

Yep, acquired taste. I remember a few years back he was a speaker at a WH Press Dinner and made some journalists very uncomfortable with some of his barbs.

He, Stern, Limbaugh, Ingram, Savage, etc. are just part of the decline in civil discourse (and Western civilization ).

I don't lump all of those into the same group. But that's ok.

I'd like to give you a thumbs up on all that but I can't really include Stern in the catagory of "civil discourse". :wink-new:
