My dad introduced me to 60 minutes as a kid, and I've been a fan since.
RIP.

I will never understand the mindset of TV personalities who think they have to work forever. Literally in this case.

I have a feeling he absolutely loved what he was doing, and probably didn't consider it work.

I'm only on the freedom 85 plan due to bad investments and a divorce. I couldn't imagine being bored as I have so many things I want to do during the day and never have time for.

Well there is always Calgarypuck. I think half of you spend half your time here already. I know the net has helped me stay interested during my retirement.

So sad to see the old 60 minutes guys go, for such a long time that show was the top investigative group run by the best news producer in history.
I never missed 60 mins in the 90s, such an incredible group of people and an end of an era with the crap news we get today.
