He once said that he wanted his tomb stone to read "HEEEERE'S JOHNNY".
Hope he gets his wish, and that he will be long remembered.

I like this quote too.
"he once joked he wanted "I'll be right back" on his tombstone."

He was talking about marriage once (married 4 times). He was going over the silver anniv., gold, diamond etc., and he said he's in the Formica stage. LMAO at the time. He had a great way of telling jokes. Miss his show.

There have been, are, and will be many imitators - but none will ever equal him. Truly one of a kind. Godspeed, Johnny

Like Letterman said "everybody including me are all pretenders, Johnny was the real deal."

All the shows on DVD would be cool, no commercials - awesome!

They do sell "Best Of Johnny" on DVD etc. right now,but I would much rather watch the original 90 minute shows in thier entirety on network prime time TV,with old commercials still attached from those days.
I'd bet that would challenge the ratings of watching people eat Cow testicles today!
