Did you know Randolph Blake? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I knew Randolph Blake. My dad met him through an acquaintance where Dad and Randolph became good friends. Dad was hurt on the job seriously because of a machine that didn't get calibrated correctly, and was the companies fault. Through Randolph's urging, my dad sued the company for negligence. The company finally settled out of court with my dad, but Dad could never work again. Randolph convinced my dad to invest all his money in a business for himself. Randolph said he would handle everything. So Dad agreed and gave Randolph the money, but Randolph disappeared and we never saw him again. I had no idea, until I saw Gilligans Island,that he took the money and went to Hawaii, where I am sure he blew it all on strippers and ended up getting killed with a spear gun. Dad was sad to hear about his death, but happy to know he didn't get away with what he did. Did any of you know Randolph Blake?

Yes. In college he stole a term paper I had spent days writing and turned it in as his own. He got an A on it, and I flunked the class..........

I could never figure out if all the castaways were just PRETENDING to know Randolph Blake or if they actually did.
