Bo Diddley passed away today at the age of 79 in Florida. Although he no may longer be with us, the music and sound he created will live on with us forever!
Harvey Korman passed away today at the age of 81. He made us laugh on The Carol Burnett Show and in History or the World: Part I, Blazing Saddles and so many more and thanks to DVDs we still be able to laugh with him whenever we want!
Thanks for the laughs!
Pink Floyd’s 2-story blowup pig survived 31 years, but sadly it did not survive Coachella ’08.
On Sunday night during the closing performance of the festival, Roger Waters set his pig free for the Coachella audience but the pig with Obama written on his belly had a different plan and flew away. On Monday Coachella organizers offered a $10,000 and 4 free tickets for life for his return. Tuesday morning two residents found what was left of him on their driveways according to The Desert Sun.
“Interesting he’d land in a country club,” said Susan Stoltz, who found the plastic pig heap in her driveway. She had no idea what it was until she read Tuesday’s Desert Sun.
Believe it or not, Stoltz said she was wearing a Pink Floyd “Wish You Were Here” T-shirt as she read the paper and realized what she had.
“If I’m lyin’ I’m dyin’,” Stoltz said with a southern twang.
How ironic is that? Both couples will split the $10,000 reward and 4 tickets for life. The Desert Sun says that they are donating the money to youth musical programs in the area.
No word from Roger Waters about the find, but hopefully he will contact Susan Stoltz who is obviously a big fan!!!
BTW it is not known what brought the pig down, but I wonder if Hillary Clinton supporters had something to do it with? LOL!
Stanley Kamel passed away today at the age of 65 from a heart attack. He had an amazing career, but we will remember him from his latest role as Dr Charles Kroger on Monk. A role that has and will continue to bring smiles to our faces.
Here is what USA said about his untimely death.
USA is deeply saddened by the news of Stanley Kamel’s passing. Stanley was an amazingly talented and extremely kind man, and an important member of the USA family. He will be sorely missed.
Monk will not be the same without him.
