RIP Isabella.

I guess Nichelle's Son finally has his grubby hands on her money. He's a worthless shit.

So sorry Jim, RIP to a great pup....

And RIP to two what I consider legends in their fields!  I had read that Nichelle spent a decent amount of time helping NASA get women & minorities interested in the Sciences.....

RIP Isabella.  I'm sure that she thanks you for giving her a good life.

So much this. Good dog, Isabella.  

RIP Isabella. What a beautiful dog, well loved I’m sure, she looks so happy!

RIP Isabella - what a nice doggy. She had a great life from the pics. But it sure is tough to say goodbye to an animal companion. The difficult kind thing to do.

And RIP Nichelle Nichols. Alas boldly gone.

He got his just deserts. She cut him out of her will. https://radaronline.com/p/nichelle-nichols-star-trek-startrek-last-will-testament-exclusive/

RIP Isabella!  I had a pointer just like her.  I miss her dearly and that was 25 years ago

Godspeed, Isabella.  Beautiful girl....

Thanks for posting. Glad he took the show more serious and think about the chicken scene a few times every year since it aired. 

RIP Vin Scully 94. 

I was never a Doger fan but growing up in SoCal, I was a fan of listening to Vin.

RIP Vin. Dodgers still suck.

RIP VS. Dodgers suck but he was the best to ever do it IMO. 

RIP to Vin.  Spent my childhood listening to him - Dad's a big Dodgers fan. 

Is "suck" code for best record in baseball right now? Just wondering

Edited August 4, 20224 yr by MoonShine

Giants have lost 8 in a row to them so I can't really say much more than the Dodgers still suck even if they are good! 

RIP Judith Durham of the Seekers.  There will never be another you.

This one really hurts.

RIP Judith Durham. Will be missed dearly.

R.I.P Olivia

 

 

 

RIP Olivia.  Sorry Oz, you're having a tough week.

Olivia Newton-John is a minor deity in my book, a beautiful woman inside and out.  All this even though I wasn't so much into her music....

RIP.....and fuck cancer....all types, but especially mbc.....

Saw Grease when I was 10 and Sandy Olsson gave me some completely new feelings.

Olivia seemed like a terrific person in real life too. RIP.

This sad indeed. 

I grew up on her early music. Believe it or not, I still haven't seen Grease and have no interest in doing so. But she did seem like a pretty down to earth and good person. And she was a fellow member of the Rainbow Club after all!

R.I.P. Olivia "I honestly love you".

Never was a huge fan, but she affected so many people so positively and brought so much joy to the world, I still feel the world just got a little bit darker.

A lot of my 80's were ruled by Olivia. I watched Xanadu (thanks for the clip G) countless times. The blend of her and ELO was magic to me. 

RIP Olivia 

You are suspended in time.
