It was unfortunate what happen to Ed, I also grew up watching him on the Carson Show and on occasion I had waited patiently by my door in hopes that Ed would show up and pronounce me winner of the Publishers Clearing House Sweepstakes. What a beautiful house he has, though a bit eclectic for my tastes. I personally would have liked to see more pictures of the bathrooms. Being a bathroom connoisseur myself I love looking at marvelously designed bathrooms. Especially celebrity bathrooms because they can afford all the exciting new toys that turn their bathrooms into a home spa that any 5 star hotel would envy. If anybody has anymore pics of Eds bathrooms don't hesitate to pass them along my way.
