I thought Winkler was dead...

[Hopkirk]

Well I'm very happy to say you are wrong.

[jno]

what, after jumping the shark? I think he landed safely.

[MarkRae]

He works extremely hard for sufferers of dyslexia, so he's aces in my book, as our American cousins might say.

I loved the last paragraph of the article:

"The Queen makes honorary awards to non-British citizens on the advice of the UK Foreign Office. It is not clear whether she is a fan of the Fonz."

[fliptheswitch]

Yeah, I saw this today. Made me smile... I loved Happy Days! :-)

Didn't know he was a childrens author though.

[fliptheswitch]

Lol. I bet she is!

[snags]

Ignore me... I'm actually thinking of Bill Bixby...

[MarkRae]

Yes, Bill Bixby's been dead for nearly 20 years.

[Mamyalynne]

You just have to love the Winkler !!!

[MarkRae]

Mary didn't, though...

It's said now that people will be shorter in height...

[Mamyalynne]

A price that must be paid I guess.

[pips1]

What do you mean?

[MarkRae]

They can fit twice as many in the same building site...

[cupid04]

HEY!

[Mamyalynne]

pips don't worry it will all be alright and we shall save on shoe leather.

[MarkRae]

In the interest of humanity...

[piggynose]

its a shame he couldnt bring himself the say sorry(happy days)

If it ever comes on, watch the film 'Night Shift', with Henry as a morgue attendant. Also Michael Keaton, and an appearance by Kevin Costner.
