watching the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame induction show, and I've got tears rolling down my face as Dave Mathews plays "A Pirate Looks At 40" and James Taylor talks about Jimmy Buffett, with Jimmy's family in the audience.

Can't believe I'm never going to see See Buffett in concert again. If you can love a person without ever actually meeting them, I loved Jimmy Buffett.


Fernando Valenzuela?!

Fernando Valenzuela?!

RIP
Saw him pitch live once (in the Astrodome). Loved that crazy windup. Hope Dodgers win the series for him!


in 1981 Vin Sculley narrated the televised windup of a lefthanded rookie screwballer pausing at the peak of his delivery to up look toward heavens above as if requesting divine intervention with the low and away strike
today we catch up with them both


Phil Lesh. You know who he is.

I stumbled on a blurb but didn't pay much attention so I might be wrong, but I saw that Tarzan died.

Well, Ron Ely.


Gary Indiana. I didn't realize how much he had done until I read the NY Times obit, but I did read his film criticism over the years.

I thought she was great in "Let it Ride", gave Jen Tilly a little bit of competition in the lingerie scene.

Major love for Teri Garrett. She was one of the dancers (along with Toni Basil) in the TAMI show.

RIP Teri Garr

She was always great. I always think about one of her lines from Let it Ride. "I've decided to become an alcoholic. It's the healthiest thing I can do!"


it is my assertion that no woman has ever been more attractive than Teri Garr in Young Frankenstein.

Thật is one line that made me love her, and one reason. I married my wife

Chuck Woolery...game show host. 80-something.

Not to speak ill of the dead, but I was a contestant coordinator of Love Connection for a season, and Woolery might be the stupidest person I've ever met.
