It's kinda funny. We were talking at work just yesterday about Gilligans Island and how the professor is one of the few cast members left (along with ginger and Mary Ann, who's going to be at the Van. Boat show)

RIP.

RIP! Loved that show at the time.

Saw Mary Ann on the Food Channel a few weeks ago. She was on "Chopped" and still looked in good health.

Seems like the Professor finally made it off the island. RIP, brother. [B-o]

The Professor was always my favourite character on that show - at least until I discovered women...then it was Maryanne! Gotta love anyone who is hot and an awesome cook/baker! [drool]

RIP Mr. Johnson
