RIP

So long Dick Clark- thank you so much for the memories- You were a great one.

Hard to believe he was 82, he was so ingrained into American culture it feels like he should have been older, that man had a work ethic!

Levon Helm, key member of The Band, dies at 71

ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) — With songs like "The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down," ''The Weight" and "Up on Cripple Creek," The Band fused rock, blues, folk and gospel to create a sound that seemed as authentically American as a Mathew Brady photograph or a Mark Twain short story. In truth, the group had only one American — Levon Helm.

That was a lot of talent, right there. "The Last Waltz" was such a cool movie. I still watch it a few times every year.

Actor Jonathan Frid, who played imposing and elegant vampire Barnabas Collins on the gothic soap opera "Dark Shadows," has died at 87. Frid passed away on April 14 from natural causes in his native Ontario.
"Dark Shadows" ran from 1966 to 1971, drawing 20 million viewers at its peak. Frid joined the show in 1967 and his character, an elegant vampire recently freed from his chained coffin and returning to his family's estate, Collinwood, quickly became the unquestioned star.

Frid's "Dark Shadows" co-star, Kathryn Leigh Scott, who played Maggie Evans and Josette du Pres, remembered Frid on her website.

Dark Shadows was quite a program in the late 1960's and early 70's. A Soap, with dark overtones.

RIP Junior Seau. Dead of an apparent self inflicted gun shot wound at 43.

Wow, that's a surprise, although this seems like a trend with older ex-football players who dealt with concussions.

He drove himself off a cliff in 2010 (STORY). He was having problems then. Rest in Peace Junior.

RIP Junior Seau. Dead of an apparent self inflicted gun shot wound at 43.

I lived in San Diego until 2001 and remember when Junior was drafted by the Chargers to much fanfare. He is without question my favorite Charger and I still visit his restaurant when I'm in town on business.

I am stunned.
