Meet The Press' Tim Russert passed away today at the age of 58 from an apparent heart attack. Tim Russert was working at the DC Bureau (where he was the bureau) when he suddenly collapsed.
He leaves behind his wife, a son who recently graduated from college and his father who he just helped move last week.
So sad. He was definitely a journalist who stood out in the crowd.
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!
