I was walking down the sidewalk this afternoon and a guy coming the other way - could have been a homeless guy or just some hip older dude - but he was wearing an Ozzy Osborne t-shirt. I nodded, pointed and said, “Ozzy,” and flashed the horns.
He flashed the horns back at me.
Neither one of us even broke stride.
It was a beautiful moment.
In the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king.
Anyone who watched Burt Reynolds movies would recognize this guy:
I was not aware of Seán Rocks, but he was enough of a celebrity in Ireland to have his passing well noted.
My daughter loved Funnybones when she was younger. A number of his books (including that one) were illustrated by his wife Janet.
Country singer Jeannie Seely had died at age 85.
Got a couple of calls that William Shatner died. Nope.
WRIP in Cincinnati
Loni Anderson dead at 79.
OK, I’ll admit this made me smile.
Cecile Dionne, age 91 was one of the famous quintuplets and is now survived by her last sister Annette.
Boy, did I misread that name at first.
You and me both.
Ditto.
And Stephe96 beat me to making a WRIP joke.
I was at the Dionne museum with my family around the time I turned 6.
I would find out many years later as an adult how tragically those girls were exploited by their parents and the government.

I had Loni Anderson in the Themed Pool, but only as an alternate. WRIP, indeed.
James Whale held on longer than even he expected, but today he gave a number of us 26 points
David Roach, frontman for the ‘80s-‘90s hard rock band Junkyard, has been scrapped.
I should move up a couple of spots. This was getting embarrassing
Me three. That person’s heart apparently will go on a bit longer.
