How is Keith Richards still alive?
I'm not sure that Rachel Held Evans is exactly a "celebrity", but she was a popular Christian author. She died today, just 37 years old, after a severe allergic reaction to antibiotics.I don't spend much time reading religious writers and thinkers, but Evans was one that I did read once in a while. She was an evangelical, but also a progressive, which makes her a pretty rare blend, and an interesting read in a landscape where Christianity (especially evangelical Christianity) is mostly represented by conservative and male voices.This blog post is typical of how she framed progressive ideas in a Christian context:https://rachelheldevans.com/blog/me-too-john-piper -k
Tim Conway gone today. His Carol Burnett Show skits were the funniest things I have seen on TV.
Churchill syndrome. A dozen cigars, a few whiskies, a bottle and a half of champagne and a couple of brandies a day for a good life.
Well. It's sad he's gone but... really ?
He was definitely up there with the funniest. Much of it was ad lib. He would stick to the script during rehearsals then go rogue during the shooting. Just waiting for him to make Harvey Korman lose it was worth watching on its own.
