A PRELIMINARY HAT SQUAD: ROBERT CULP

I'm on the road - in a way - so I won't be able to post anything about the death of Robert Culp until Friday. But I'll just say now he was one of my faves and a great symbol for "Cool" on the small screen.

As I do with all my tips of the hat to those in the TV biz who have left us, allow me to quote Red Skelton: Good night, and may God bless.

I'll be back soon.....
