beer years eight
Around year seven or eight, you'd kill yourself when you realized Norm had to enter and you had to come up with a new beer joke.

It is particularly appropriate that we unveil this campaign on this first day of the annual international coastal clean-up effort, ... Beach cleanups are something each of us can do any time of the year.

ocean sharks years
Sharks have swum the oceans for over 400 million years, but we're threatening this critically important species for the purpose of making soup - it's sad and wasteful.

Years ago, we all talked about recycling and not dumping things down your drain and all of that, but talking doesn't help much. Basically, it's going to have to be legislation because the impact is so huge and diversified.

They were amazing characters to play. It was really the aristocracy of writers. Most of the writers I've worked with since then came out of that school.

We used to never study or memorize lines. We'd get a half a page out, throw a spit ball and look at our lines. Hence it was very chaotic on Cheers.

bar falling until wait
I think we should wait until we're in our 70s I think. You know, falling apart. Then it would be kind of funny. Get us all back in a bar again.
