Hear that? It’s the sound of a couple hundred “2008 short lists” being updated.
Screenwriter/director Melville Shavelson is dead at 90, English broadcaster/music promoter Tony Wilson is dead at 57, and LDS official James Faust is dead at 87
According to the National Inquirer at the store today, Mervy has finally come out of the closet with his Big Fat Gay Secret.

Many years ago a Friend of a Friend spotted him making public displays of affection with a boyfriend…but then, much more recently, there was a profile of him and his wife on CBS Sunday Morning.

No, I was the last to know.
And the last to care. . . .
Merv Griffin has died.
Zactly. Wise words, indeed. 
Meh, no points.
According to Wiki, Phil Rizzuto,

Max Roach, jazz drummer, dead at 83.
17 points for some lucky jazz ghoul?
Yone Minagawa, who had been proclaimed the world’s oldest living person in January, has died at the age of 114. We have thus lost the last human to have lived during Benjamin Harrison’s term as President of the United States. The new reigning champion super-centenarian is Edna Parker of Indiana.
Michael Deaver has died.

Exaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaactly.
