Self-explanatory.

So don your favorite mourning color, cover the mirrors, stop the clocks, raise a glass and have at it, telling who among the glitterati has joined the Yesterday Club. Post annos mortem if you like, to mark the dates we lost the past famous. Be creative. Death is the mighty unifier, after all, or to quote the great Mr. Khayyam (or at least his Irish ghost writer Edward Fitzgerald):

Strange, is it not? that of the myriads who
Before us pass'd the door of Darkness through,
Not one returns to tell us of the Road,
Which to discover we must travel too.


Sooo, tell us, what member of Equity, what Grammy winner, or Golden Globe nominee-wannabe has recently shuffled off this mortal coil?

Today it was Prince, tomorrow.....? Do tell!

Tim Hedrick, iconic Midwestern meteorologist and TV weather anchor passed on this morning. The bravery he showed in his two-year battle with prostate cancer was as inspiring as his visible on-air decline in recent months was sad.

Thank you for this, ER.

Richard (Dick) Bakalyan (1931-2015)

His last acing film role was in 2006 in "Art School Confidential" and his motion picture debut was in "The Delinquents" in 1957 or a career that lasted almost 50 years in films. And while his films ranged from "Chinatown" to "Von Ryan's Express," he is perhaps best known as one of those regulars you kept on seeing in Disney films, such as "The Computer Wore Tennis Shoes" to providing the voice for an animated character like Dinky in Disney's "The Fox and the Hound." He will be missed.

Unfortunately, he is likely not the only one we will be missing during the coming year or 2016. Here's to them all!

Razzak Khan, Bollywood comic whose antics didn't translate well to the western humor palate, but whom for the last forty years Indians found hilarious.

And while I'm at it, our local celebrity dubbed Harambe, a magnificent specimen of a gorilla, been there with my children in that same area at the zoo many times. It's not easy to get down to there the gorillas are, you really have to make an effort, and that idiot woman should have been watching her child.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
