--> Hello -

Actually, more than any year gone by, I remember this as being the most peppered with loss of 'greats'. people who died and left many standing thinking 'wow they were absolutely necessary to my music and everything in the world of arts' and the like...

For instance, just a few: James Brown most recently, Also Syd Barrett, steve Irwin.

Maybe its the fact that one close family friend died recently and another diagnosed with terminal cancer everywhere ...

John peel died not long ago and really ive started to notice these things and its actually made me a bit pre-NYE depressed.

Also - another recent death was of Johnny Cash, and Desmond dekker.

Who else can you think of died this year that were legends?


All this leads me to add that its in our hands now. we have to carry forward what foundations they lay and 'be the next step'.

All this is just coz Im getting older isnt it?

joe barbera link al lewis link steve irwin, james brown, coretta scott king link robert altman, those were the ones that bothered me most, but really after 90/91 when dr. suess and jim henson died was when i stopped paying much attention cause it was like my whole childhood was gone.

peter boyle was the best thing that ever happened to Everybody Loves Raymond.

honestly, if i had a boyle on my peter i'd want it to be gone as soon as possible.
