Aw man, he was one of my all-time favorites. Loved him in Fringe and everything else he did. Just watched a reaction to Wick a few weeks ago.

So much talent gone too soon.

That's where I knew him from (Smacks forehead) I just couldn't place him. Loved him in that show and the Wick movies.

@Gefn

Thank you.

Willis Reed, legendary Knicks Hall of Famer, dead at 80

By Don Burke
March 21, 2023

Willis Reed, the heart and soul of the Knicks’ most recent NBA championship teams, and the man who gave New York City sports one of its most iconic moments, died Tuesday, The Post has confirmed. He was 80.

Known simply as “The Captain” years before Derek Jeter was born, Reed played 10 seasons in the NBA, all with the Knicks, for whom he also served as coach and general manager after his playing career ended in 1974. He also coached and was an executive with the Nets when they played their games in New Jersey and was an executive with the New Orleans Hornets from 2004-07.

The first member of the Knicks to have his number retired, Reed was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 1982 and was named among the 50 Greatest Players in NBA history during the 1996-97 season.

But it was during Game 7 of the 1970 NBA Finals that Reed carved his name in the hardwood history of Madison Square Garden and the league.

From Facebook:

The 2nd Chapter of Acts - Official
44m ·
Jim Gordon was considered one of the best rock drummers in the '70's. He was gifted by God and played on early 2nd Chapter of Acts recordings. Annie sensed trouble in his soul and became burdened for him. Eventually she would write "Jimmy's Song" as a prayer for Jim which was included on the live double album recording "To The Bride". This week Jim died in prison a sad end to a gifted man. When situations like this arise, its comforting to understand that God is a righteous judge.

Built a great company that has since fell into the hands of idiots. Recently INTC was at 10 year low on market cap, and right now it's only a speculative chip play in case the Chicoms invade Taiwan. Right now it is worth about 40% of its all time highs.

Pretty amazing he made it to 93, losing that much capital and market share.

Mark Russell, political satirist with a star-spangled piano, dies at 90

Quote

Mark Russell, Washington’s social-political satirist and stand-up comic who spoofed, teased and laughed at celebrities, politicians, politics and popular culture for more than 50 years from behind his star-spangled piano, died March 30 at his home in the District. He was 90.

The cause was complications from prostate cancer, said his wife, Alison Russell.

From the waning years of Dwight D. Eisenhower’s administration through the presidencies of 10 succeeding chief executives, Mr. Russell poked fun at the foibles and flaws of the well-known, the pompous and the powerful in monologues replete with pithy one-liners and musical ditties. He called himself “a political cartoonist for the blind.”

Craig Breedlove, First to Drive 500, 600 MPH, Dies at 86

Fearless All-American land-speed racer thrived when Bonneville was the land of speed dreams.

BY MARK VAUGHN
APR 5, 2023

Craig Breedlove, the Southern California hot rodder who assembled a team of engineers and street racers to bolt rocket engines onto wheels, has died. He was 86.

Breedlove set records at more than 400, 500, and 600 mph in jet-powered cars running surplus fighter jet engines. For a three-year period from 1962 to 1965, Breedlove battled two other great land speed racers for glory on the Bonneville Salt Flats—Art Arfons and his brother Walt. Between the three of them the records were made, broken and set again.

Breedlove's final top speed record was a blistering 606.6 mph.

Nora Forster, the wife of Sex Pistols frontman John Lydon, has died at 80 after a years-long battle with Alzheimer’s.

Forster had lived with Alzheimer’s for the past seven years, with Lydon being her “full-time carer” throughout her battle with the disease.

Johnny Rotten is a good guy underneath it all. I remember back in the day he was the only one who dared speak up about Jimmy Savile at the BBC, only after Jimmy's death did people find out the monster he really was.

Ben Ferencz, last living Nuremberg prosecutor of Nazis, dies at 103
By Associated Press via NY Post
April 9, 2023 12:30am

Ben Ferencz, the last living prosecutor from the Nuremberg trials, who tried Nazis for genocidal war crimes and was among the first outside witnesses to document the atrocities of Nazi labor and concentration camps, has died. He had just turned 103 in March.

Ferencz died Friday evening in Boynton Beach, Florida, according to St. John’s University law professor John Barrett, who runs a blog about the Nuremberg trials.

The death also was confirmed by the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington.

“Today the world lost a leader in the quest for justice for victims of genocide and related crimes,” the museum tweeted.

Born in Transylvania in 1920, Ferencz immigrated as a very young boy with his parents to New York to escape rampant antisemitism. ...

Ben Ferencz was 27 years old during the Nuremberg War Crimes Trials.

Lighten up,Lucille!

Is it possible that you never saw ANY Vampire movies when you were a child?

Or ever saw "The Rocky Horror Picture Show and the lead actor (Rocky) singing about being from "Transsexual Transylvania"? If not,I highly recommend it. It is freaking hilarious!

I enjoyed the interviews with him. Even in his (much) later years, he was sharp and insightful.

Of course I did Pete, I also probably know quite a bit more about great people born in Transylvania like Elie Wiesel , but I don't think I would use the Obit of someone with Ferencz's history to take a shot at cheap humor.......

well maybe....

Michael Lerner, ‘Barton Fink’ actor, dead at 81

By Tracy Wright, Fox News

Academy Award-nominated actor Michael Lerner died Saturday. He was 81.

His nephew, Sam Lerner, who starred on “The Goldbergs,” announced his death in an Instagram post shared Sunday afternoon.

“We lost a legend last night. It’s hard to put into words how brilliant my uncle Michael was, and how influential he was to me,” Sam wrote. “His stories always inspired me and made me fall in love with acting. He was the coolest, most confident, talented guy, and the fact that he was my blood will always make me feel special.”

Michael earned an Oscar nomination in 1991 for his role as Jack Lipnick in “Barton Fink.” He had nearly 200 credits to his name, including “Eight Men Out,” “Godzilla” and “X-Men: Days of Futures Past,” with three un-released projects in the works.
