And then didn't fade from fame and disappear... after decades, he stayed with his fans and basked in the adulation.
Enzo, John Z., Malcomb or the MB SS never sat in a car with me to shoot the sh!t, pose for some pics or sign my dash.
Carroll did.
It's just the hard kick in the teeth recently seems to hurt more than anything.
We thought he was different.
You network guys ought to know that.
