RIP Tab Hunter

I was saddened that Tab Hunter died Sunday at age 86 at his home in Montecito (Santa Barbara), California, of cardiac arrest caused by a clot in his leg that moved to his lung.  All the obituaries on him have it right when they refer to him as the 50's Hollywood heartthrob.  He was indeed that... oh my God, yes.  One said his blond all-American good looks made him a matinee idol and poster boy for the Eisenhower era optimism.  Bingo.
