Hey just saw this on the news, Merv Griffin died today at the young age of 82. Though not a magician, he hosted many of today's finest magicians on his shows.

I know a friend of mine, under the stage name of Jay Michele, appeared on his show.

I met him once years ago and got the impression of the nicest man you could imagine who was also a genius. He loved to laugh and made everybody feel comfortable...and lordaw mighty was he in the chips!
Another good one gone.

I can't remember if was Merv Griffin or Mike Douglas that had on one show the only acts on for that day were magicians. I want to say it was Merv's but am not sure.
