Sad news… Ed McMahon, Johnny Carson’s beloved sidekick on the Tonight Show & the “ding-dong rich” purveyor of American Family Publishers sweepstakes passed away yesterday at the age of 86 in LA. Ed had been battling cancer & pneunomia since January. Ed, you’ll be greatly missed. And let’s all say it again for old time sake… “Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeere’s Johnny!”
