RIP Norm (aka George Wendt)

George Wendt, an actor with an Everyman charm who played the affable, beer-loving barfly Norm on the hit 1980s TV comedy “Cheers” and later crafted a stage career that took him to Broadway in “Art,” “Hairspray” and “Elf,” has died. He was 76.

I used to enjoy watching Cheers back then. RIP, George Wendt.

I love that show, although I identified more with Cliff than with Norm…

I had not realized, till I read this article, that Vera the voice on the phone of his wife was really played by his wife. I love that..

It’s a dog-eat -dog world out there and I’m wearing milk bone underwear.

Women. You can’t live with them….. pass the beer nuts.

Two norm quotes I carry around in my head with me…
