What do I know about Johnny Carson? Nothing really. So keep reading anyway.

I usually like it when a celebrity dies. However, it seems that none of the celebrities I hate ever die. As I think about it, I don't really dislike any "older" celebrities. I mean, I HATE Jennifer Aniston, Fred Durst, Christina Aguilera, Mariah Carey, Madonna, and this one guy on TV. But they never die.

Let me see, I remember watching Johnny Carson's last show. Yep. I was just 22. I probably didn't watch even 20 entire episodes of The Tonight Show, but Johnny seemed okay by me. When I was a little kid, Johnny Carson meant staying up late, and that was cool.

I have nothing more to say about it than that. Just, yeah... and I'll leave you with the lyrics to one of Brian Wilson's odder compositions:

Johnny Carson
(Written by Brian Wilson)
(Recorded by The Beach Boys, from The Beach Boys Love You, 1977)

He sits behind his microphone
John-ny Car-son
He speaks in such a manly tone
John-ny Car-son

Ed McMahon comes on and says "here's Johnny"
Every night at eleven thirty he's so funny
"It's nice to have you on the show tonight
I've seen your act in vegas - out of sight!"

When guests are boring he fills up the slack
John-ny Car-son
The network makes him break his back
John-ny Car-son

Ed McMahon comes on and says "here's Johnny"
Every night at eleven thirty he's so funny
Don't you think he's such a)natural guy
The way he's kept it up could make you cry

Who's a man that we admire?
Johnny Carson is a real live wire.
Who's a man that we admire?

Who's a man that we admire?

Who's the man that we admire?
Johnny Carson is a real live wire
