Unforgeable . . . that’s what they were By JANET HART LEONARD Don Rickles passed away this week. You know, Mr. Warmth. I would guess to say that anyone age 50 or younger has no idea who that is. I was standing in line at Meijer a few weeks ago and a father and son were behind me. They were looking at the gossip magazines. The son asked his dad, “Who is Bob Hope?” REALLY? I mean BOB HOPE. Funny how the huge names of mov- ie stars, comedians and singers that I grew up with are somewhat unknown to my kids and my grandkids are totally clueless of who they are. Chuck and I remember the words to most songs that we grew up with. Chuck will often make a comment and it will lead into him singing a song and I'll join in. "Shine on, Shine on Harvest Moon...You are my sunshine . . . I write the songs that make the whole world sing . . . Unforgettable." It's hard for me to imagine my grandkids being able to serenade some- one they love with the songs of Snoop Dog, Eminem, or Kanye. If they sing them around their Grandma Janet they may get their mouths washed out with soap. The truth is Chuck and I often have no idea what is being sung on the award shows. And that's probably a good thing. I know a lot is beeped out. There are a few exceptions like Justin Tim- berlake. I love the comic relief of the come- dians that I grew up with. Lucille Ball, Dick Van Dyke, Red Skelton and later Steve Martin, Robin Williams, Eddie Murphy and our own Hoosier, David Letterman. If I had to choose my all-time favor- ite comedian it would be Carol Burnett. If you added her wit with the humor of Tim Conway and Harvey Corman you got a comedic delight. You could sit around the TV, in mixed company, and you never had to worry about what would be said or suggested. And who could ever forget Art Lin- kletter and the segment on his show, Kids say the Darnedest Things . . . and they did! He would get tickled and struggled to maintain his composure when a little one would tell a family secret. Oh my. I miss those shows. I miss the hu- mor. I miss the music. They truly were unforgettable.

Coming out of halftime George scoredthe second halfs first five points to give thePacers a 73-59 lead The Magic made itinteresting though despite being out ofplayoff contention
Orlando went on a 16-7 run to get backwith five 80-75 with 526 to go in the third
But the Pacers fired back outscoringOrlando 19-7 the rest of the thirdhighlighted by back-to-back jump shots

But the Pacers fired back outscoringOrlando 19-7 the rest of the thirdhighlighted by back-to-back jump shots
from Lance Stephenson to end the quarterto lead 99-82
We knew eventually that they weregoing to cool down a little bit and the pacethat we were going offensively there wasgoing to be separation tonight George said
The Pacers continued to pile on in thefourth A George jumper gave Indiana a20-point lead with 1041 remaining Orlandogot within 12 120-108 with just under threeminutes to go but Myles Turner deliveredthe final blow hitting a jumper to give thePacers a 14-point lead effectively shuttingthe door at the 231 mark
