The Professor passed away

[Kjohnson]

Russell Johnson, 89

'Gilligan's Island' actor

Died: Thursday, at his home in Washington state, of natural causes, according to his agent Mike Eisenstadt.

Background: Johnson was a busy but little-known character actor when he was cast in "Gilligan's Island," the slapstick 1960s comedy about seven people marooned on an uncharted Pacific island. His character, high school science teacher Roy Hinkley, built generators and other gadgets out of scraps of junk found on the island. Johnson later joked that the one thing the Professor never figured out how to do was to fix the leaky boat so the group could get back to civilization. Johnson also appeared in episodes of "The Tw ilight Zone," "Outer Limits," "Gunsmoke" and "Dallas."

My third favorite character on the show. The two others were female (and non millionares).

Note that I said "were" as in past tense. 

If the professor was 89, how old is ginger now? Pushing 80? Looks like she, as do too many female celebrities went to the face doctor for the "carp lips" procedure.

Ewww!  Trying to look much younger than you actually are, is NOT aging gracefully.  That's why I refuse to join Hair Club for Men.

You are right.  Ginger would make a good sugar mama.      Mary Ann is a keeper, though.
