Christine McVie....

Fleetwood Mac, that rare level of commercial artist that transcends commercialism itself to create true pop art.

RIP

So sad. Arguably the most talented in a true super group.

Not a flashy singer but really, really good.

Also, Aline Kominsky-Crumb, who will eternally be known as Robert Crumb's wife. But she did some interesting comics of her own, although she lacked her husband's drawing talent.

Kirstie Allley RIP


That’s sad news.  Watching re-runs of Cheers again recently was a lot of fun.

They say he was every bit as nice in person as on stage.

Elvis slept with his mother until age 13, then with Priscilla from age 14.

There wasn't sex in either case.

Extremely cool time we live in in which every time someone famous or otherwise dies or experiences a medical emergency, the antivaxxers come out of the woodwork to harrass the families. We really should have put them in camps like they said we would.

If they're going to scream authoritarian fascism all the time, they would probably appreciate something real to scream about

Of course, god forbid anyone asking questions about so many younger people suddenly dying, particularly of heart issues.  Clapping seals keep clapping.

Can you cite data that backs up your claim that more young people than usual are dying of heart issues?

Also, Christine McVie can in no way be described as "younger."
