Mr. Love Bug is gone

Dean Jones, R.I.P.

He entertained me when *I* was a kid!

When The Love Bug came out in 1968, I was 11 years old.

Now this is sad. Love the Herbie movies. I'll still sit and watch them. Godspeed, Mr. Jones.

I remember watching all those old Disney movies on the wonderful world of Disney every Sunday night. Back when not only did you have to get up to change the channel but also you had to move the antenna.
