It looks like, for the main cast, the only Munsters who have died are Fred Gwynne and Al Lewis. On the Addams Family side, you still have John Astin (Gomez) alive and kicking, and both Wednesday and Pugsly are still around. IMDB says that Wednesday was married to the porn star Jerry Butler.
Sadly, IMDB also says that the Wayans are making a Munsters movie for 2006.

Computer Remote Control Convenience
Feb. 4th, 2006 10:40 pmI installed a remote control program on my desktop and laptop called VNC which is available for the best price of all: free. I used this at a previous job and it worked well. It seems to be working fine thus far. Basically what I'm doing is using my laptop in the living room for full access to my desktop PC. You see, my normal morning/breakfast procedure is to have my desktop load up around 30 web comics and also Slashdot and Wired. I'll eat breakfast and read. But frequently I'll end up with multiple Slashdot or Wired articles open and I hate sitting at my desktop doing tons of reading. So now with this remote control software I can lie in my chair in the living room and read what's on my desktop and clean it up a bit.
The one downside is that if the computer you're accessing is set to a higher resolution than what you're accessing from, it can be inconvenient with dealing with scroll bars and such.
The really cool thing about this program is that it's multi-platform: you can use a Windows machine to control a Mac or a Linux box or vice-versa in any combination.
Did I mention that it's free? ;-)

The Desert Island/DVD Meme
Feb. 4th, 2006 11:40 pmYou're standed on a desert island and you were only able to rescue a dozen DVDs (a dozen because the layout for ten looks stupid). Fortunately your DVD player and TV can be solar-powered. What movies would you take?
