CLIFF HUXTABLE, R.I.P.

Bill Cosby a.k.a. Cliff Huxtable (or is it the other way around) was arraigned today for the rape of a woman named Andrea Constand. Ms. Constand claims that Mr. Cosby drugged and sexually assaulted her in 2004, and has filed criminal assault charges against him; just prior to the end of the 12 year statute of limitations.

How the mighty have fallen.

“The Cosby Show” was loved by all, and ‘til recently generated immense profits in syndication. “Cliff Huxtable” represented the all-American father and husband. He was as prone to human wisdom, as he was susceptible to human frailty. But whether the portent of wisdom, or the model of weakness, it seemed he could do no wrong.

Until…

While the vast portion of the proverbial Cliff Huxtable’s life on earth was filled with wealth, adulation and ease, Bill Cosby’s waning years are rift with spiritual poverty, suspicion and agitation. And unlike his fictional predecessor, this once-was, has-been comedian leaves a legacy bereft of character, and replete with the filth of innuendo and a rancid reputation.
