So Long Sam

In light of the recent passing of Sam the butcher from The Brady Bunch, Mr. Todd is seeking grief counseling and cannot blog today.  Our thoughts and prayers are united with the world's communal grief this evening. 

Mr. Todd asks that you respect his privacy as he mourns the loss of a childhood hero.  In lieu of flowers, please contact Ann B. Davis and break the news to her, gently.  --Liz Rosenberg, Mr. Todd's spokesman

--Jim Todd
