Further signs of my advanced age

Have few people under 40 heard of Rich Little, as this article claims? I mean, I'm under 40, though admittedly just barely. And, yeah, Rich Little is and always was kind of lame, but I remember him being all over TV not just in the 70s but well into the 80s, though toward the end of that period I think he was mostly doing Little Debbie snack cake commercials.

Well, since Bob Hope's dead and all...

I saw the one Drew Carey did in 2002 which was all light-hearted good fun, and while this was when the president had a touch more support than he does now, I don't think he'd make his act any harsher today.

Other entertainers from the past are listed here, for the curious.

I'd say Bob Hope actually had more of an edge.
