It's been a long, long time.)
April 24, 20179 yr Oh no! Zen is one of the books that I can honestly say changed my life. Pirsig was a genius. RIP.
April 24, 20179 yr Yup, Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance was one of the main influences of my life in my early 20s.
April 26, 20179 yr Ditto. That old paperback is and has been a foot away from me on my bookshelf, every morning as I ride my old man exercise bike.
April 26, 20179 yr RIP, Mr. Demme. Silence of the Lambs and Stop Making Sense are two of my favorite movies.

May 8, 20179 yr RIP Col. Bruce Hampton. In my early days I used to drop by the Twelfth Gate coffee house and groove on the antics of The Hampton Grease Band. I still have their double lp "Music to Eat". https://www.nytimes.com/2017/05/02/arts/music/bruce-hampton-70-jam-scene-patriarch-dies-after-collapsing-on-stage.html
May 10, 20179 yr RIP Robert Miles. I wonder how many times this has been used as a backing track elsewhere? Got to be in the millions.
May 10, 20179 yr RIP to Col. Hampton and Robert Miles.....and yeah, Stretch, I seem to hear that sampled song a lot in the background.....

May 12, 20179 yr RIP Geoffrey Bayldon http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-39885577 a British Actor, age 93 Catweazle was one of those must watch series from my pre-teen years. But he was also Q in Casino Royale and a number of other movies.
May 15, 20179 yr Author RIP Powers Boothe: http://time.com/4778685/powers-boothe-obituary-deadwood/?xid=time-amp-fbshare Thought he was great in Deadwood.
May 15, 20179 yr Damn....too young. RIP, Mr. Boothe! You had a great voice and you carried your roles with presence. HS
May 16, 20179 yr Yep, RIP. Great in a lot of roles. Tombstone was another one. I also recall some movie where he was a B52 pilot in a nuclear war, didn't drop his bombs and just flying around waiting for fuel to run out at the end (world destroyed). Dawn's Early Light or something like that?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
