Doing the math, I think she just recently became of legal age.

RIP Leslie Philips.

Some may know him as the voice of the sorting hat in Harry Potter,

Some may know him for his other work.

"Leslie Phillips, who has died aged 98, will forever be remembered for playing a lecherous old rake."

RIP Gal Costa, 77. One of the great brazilian singers after Caetano Veloso and Gilberto Gil.

I had to check it myself, though arguably when Gallagher (1) sued "Gallagher Too" (2), we were back to just one. Still it was cool to be so popular you could let your brother stand in and make a living for years. 1 ran for CA governor in the 2003 recall.

I was a big fan of Gallagher (I) back in the day. Not for the smashing, but for word play. 

RIP Leo Anthony

 

Godspeed, Mssr. Clary...

I loved Hogan's Heroes so much that I started digging a secret "tunnel" in the field behind our house. I never got further than a hole a few feet deep with a piece of plywood covered in dirt clods and weeds as camouflage, but I still outfitted it with some stuff and played out there...

RIP LeBeau 😢

RIP Fred.

RIP Fred, I read Mythical Man-Month Back in the 80's and was familiar with Brook's Law (not to be confused with Burke's Law) when I started working in the industry in the 90s.

 

Godspeed, Christine.  Thank you for many a fine song...
