I just found that Nancy Parsons died this year. She is probably best remembered for portraying “Balbricker” in the classic “Porky’s” movies of the 1980s. (She also looked a lot like my grandmother):eek:

Hey!
Mjollnir—whaddaya tryin’ to do, overthrow Ike and I as King and Queen of the Dead? Could this be this an attempted coup in the Ruritarian principality of Obitiua?
Beware, ir this may lead to arias, comic patter songs and choruses from the pretty village maidens, dressed in the traditional peasant clothes of Obitua (black veils, lillies and little wreaths around the neck).
Huzzah!

Oh, there’s room for everyone to play, Eve…heck, I never got around to posting the “Bad Week for Music” thread, commemorating the passing of hard-bop/free jazz drummer Billy Higgins and Zydeco master Boozoo Chavis.
They’re jamming together in heaven right now…and probably annoyin’ the bejeesus out of each other.
