Good riddance to that drum-beating farghead.
Read about the confrontation Kris Kristofferson had with him backstage at Willie Nelson's 70th birthday. It's pure poetry.

You may remember him as the Bills CB who retired during halftime of a September game. But he was best known as a longtime Colts player and the brother of TE Vernon.

I'm bereft. God damnit.
Good riddance to presumed but not yet confirmed dead president of Iran, Ebrahim Raisi, his foreign minister, and some of their cohorts in a helicopter crash. Probably he believed he was a good man and in heaven will be getting 72 virgins to stone to death.
yeah, to "stone to death"
Also, Pro-Russian Slovak PM Robert Fico was shot 4 times by an assassin Wednesday although he may well pull through. Still, pretty good week.
I'd call it a coin toss whether Raisi's helo was just purely a pilot accident. Wouldn't be surprised if they find a way to blame the US, like with US sanctions they can't get adequate aircraft replacement parts (and of course suppress the black box last words of the pilot "say, what's a mountain goat doing way up here in a cloud bank?")

When I was a senior in high school Willie came to our school and talked to the baseball team. He was incredibly nice to us. Sat around for about an hour telling us stories about his life and career. He worked at one of the casinos as an "ambassador" and went around South Jersey talking to youth teams. He was there mostly to tell us to stay off dope and stay in school (Reagan years), but the stories he told about his youth in the south were unreal. Christ the shtein they endured back then. Anyway, RIP to an all-time great.
Dr Ruth, Richard Simmons, and Shelly Duvall, but not Trump as of this moment.

84! That's a ripe old age for a body full of acres of weed.
I expect more people saw Phil Lesh and the Dead than any other group in history.
In the summer of '89 they played JFK in Philly. Though they had moved on from their (in)famous, and game changing, 'Wall of Sound' speaker array, Phil still kept maybe a 30 foot mountain of speakers for his bass, with each stack separately dedicated to one of the 4 strings on his custom Alembic base.
Per roadie urban legend, his bass notes synched the natural frequency of the venue's concrete, and the already decrepit environs started crumbling, including large chunks of concrete, rebar and debris falling even onto the edge of the stage as they played, as well as elsewhere inside the stadium. They kept rockin on though. Dead was last show ever at JFK. Mayor Wilson Goode had JFK condemned in less than a week.
Few if any musicians can say they literally 'Brought The House Down.' And in a 100K+ seating no less. But, You did it Phil, RIP. And Feel free to blow up any other decrepit and dangerous stadiums in the name of public service with your new super powers from the other side. MetLife field might be a start. Jerry World #2

Jimmy Carter dead at 100.
RIP to a good man
RIP President Carter. One of the few that brought decency into politics.
Carter dying when he did is his last gift to us. Now that farghead Trump will have US flags at half mast during his inauguration. I'm still hoping he strokes out first.
