Nowhere in Particular. Registered: Aug 1999 posted 11-20-2007 12:21 PM                     Thats sad. Mr Wilson was always funny playing the drunks on Bewitched. The Charmin commercials were funny... to a point. The sight of middle-aged women standing around getting their jollies while squeezing toilet paper was funny... to a point.
