If you love Hugh Downs, you should let him free. If he comes back, it was meant to be. If he doesn't, then he probably didn't like the confines of your dank, pee-smelling basement.
This is the second reference I've come across today to an American television personality who has a vaguely familiar face but about whom I know jackshit. That's the problem with living beyond the border. Too many internal references.
In the interests of internationalism, I'd like to mention Canadian actress Meg Tilly was also born today. She is quoted as saying, "I have nothing intelligent to say."
Sounds to me as if she would have made a good television personality too.
Well I for one refuse to buy into the crass commercialism of Hugh Downs Day. It's just a blatant attempt for Hallmark and FTD to cash in on another phony holiday....

Crap. No one even got me a happy birthday hugh downs card or candy. stupid made up holiday.
You know he was totally hitting Barbara Walters when they hosted 20/20 together.
This is why I laugh out loud on a regular basis when I read you.

Happy Birthday, Hugh. He always trumped that John Stossel punk. The Downs Got DOWN.
*cough*
Hugh Downs needs a makeover.
He needs to buff up a bit and wear a bandolier and beret. He could be the next Rambo.
I think my coworker just got flowers for Happy HD Day! WOOHOOOO!

Happy Birthday HD.
It's probably rude to ask a lady of Hugh's years this, but do we know how many candles to buy?
Happy Birthday, Hugh...indeed!
Man, if I could do a Hugh Downs impression, I'd talk like that guy all the friggin time.
Going to the drive through window at places would rock!
Happy Valentines Day Jersey, I miss you.
Can't imagine Babawa without the balance of Hugh Downs. He deserves to be sainted just for putting up with her.

I love Hugh Downs Birthday. It's truly a special time of year.
All this talk about newsmen is making me hot. Mmm. Charlie Gibson. I mean, what? I didn't say anything.
But isn't today special for some other reason? You're a riot! And when I mean riot, I'm picturing violence in my head.
I guess I need to haul out my scissors, papers and paste again for Hugh Downs. Le sigh. Have a Happy Valentine's Day.
You've read my mind; I'll be drinking an entire bottle of wine tonight in honor of Hugh Downs' birthday.

Who thinks of these things?
I hope you celebrated Hugh's birthday in style Kris! :o)
I had a crush on him when I was eight.
I also thought LBJ was hot.
