I know he was ill but it is still sad Ghost was cool, I'm not sure why it is considered a chick-flick, there is plenty in it to appeal to men too.

While its usually a shock to learn that someone you knew of is dead (especially if they didn't seem all that old or self-destructive) its somehow worse if you find that they've been dead for quite some time. In my case it was Dan Fogelberg, someone who I hadn't heard of in over 20 years and only really knew from a handfull of songs* he made in the early '80s. But they were songs that I liked, dammit, and still listen to regularly. So you can imagine my surprise when I was poking around in wikipedia the other day and discovered that not only was he dead, but that he had died almost two years ago! Who's next, Mike Nesmith? * In particular: - Leader of the Band
- Hard to Say
- Run for the Roses
and - Same Old Lang Syne
Oh well, cheers, Dan. And thanks for the memories.

I forgot Dan Fogelberg was dead too actually. Personally I think his best song is The Power of Gold. You should check it out.

Yeah double posting nah nah. Carl Ballantine who starred as Gruber on McHale's navy with Ernest Borgnine, who was not from Tovah 9, passed away at the age of 92. He also had a comedy routine where he was a crap magician.
Funny guy.

The Equalizer. Good Show, better soundtrack. By Stewart Copeland of the Police. Woodward was in the definitive 'Wicker Man'.

Do not forget Adam Sandler,who played Colin's cousin. He was much funnier back then, he had a fake tattoo on his neck. Remote Control had to be the first game show on MTV. All the contestants sat in easy chairs and when they were eliminated the wall opened up, the chair slid off the stage and the contestants were roughed up. Clever show.
R.I.P Ken.
I will never forget Stick-pin Quinn! Also, Ober was the one responsible for getting Dennis Leary his job with MTV. The man was truly a visionary.

Gene Barry who starred on TV as Bat Masterson and Amos Burke (Burke's Law), back in the '60's, died on the 9th of December age 90. Just think of an American Patrick Macnee. He was one dapper dude.
