I was being morbid last week, reading articles about the famous folk who left us last year.
It made for sad reading
I hope this year is a better year : for all of us, not just the famous |

It's that time of year. That's why he normally has the thread up by now.
I'm losing track of who is left to go. Some of the Rolling Stones must be getting ready to gather some moss.

I was trying to explain to a friend why more famous people have died than usual.
When we were growing up, famous people died, but we've never heard of them. But now we're older, people who we grew up with are dying. |

And we don't have to wait a day or longer before we hear about it. |

I think Kirk is holding out to be 100. The Vikings was on the other day. Michael might go before Kirk.
I'm sure I saw something about Doris Day last year and thinking she looks good for her age. |
