    DEATHS ; Notable Passings; The Thread to Pay Last Respects

    This is very sad. William Hurt, dead at only 71. Natural causes, not much else known at this time. https://www.cbc.ca/news/entertainment/william-hurt-obituary-1.6383692

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    I have never liked it, though mybdaughters do. Is it ironic that the thing I dislike most about Young Sheldon is Young Sheldon?

    DEATHS ; Notable Passings; The Thread to Pay Last Respects

    Another part of my childhood gone. Emilio Delgado, known to millions of North Americans as Louis Rodriguez on Sesame Street, has died, aged 81. I was not aware he was on the show for 45 years, leaving only in 2016 after he wasn't able to renew his contract...

    Shackleton's Ship Endurance Found - 100 Years to the Day After He Died

    3,000 meters, over 10,000 feet down, insane! Another link with more imagery: https://www.cbc.ca/news/science/shackleton-endurance-shipwreck-1.6378176

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    On season four of Community. This is the season where they'd removed Dan Harmon as show runner, and is regarded as a departure from its earlier quality. So far, our assessment is the first two episodes were not great, but it has improved considerably in later episodes. We are nearing the...

    Precisely why I never liked the character.

    “Casablanca” 80th anniversary

    I have the 75th anniversary set, DVD and blu-ray, commemorative book, etc. Will be getting that out sooner rather than later!

    DEATHS ; Notable Passings; The Thread to Pay Last Respects

    TV actor Johnny Brown, perhaps best known as being the super in Good Times in the 70s, has died, aged 84: https://www.ctvnews.ca/entertainment/good-times-actor-johnny-brown-dies-at-84-1.5807127?presentid=webnews&ocid=msedgdhp

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    Odd, I am the opposite. I never liked Hunnicutt as a character, too clean cut and goody goody. Acting levels between the two I'd say would be comparable - good enough. The major character changes in MASH were my jump the shark moments. And I was only a kid at the time...

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    We have seen the first two episodes. Some good laughs, but nowhere near the level and consistency seen previously. There is overall a different "feel" to it, and not in a good way. Only 13 episodes, as are 5 and 6, so a glitch we will suffer through!

    This is sad. Actor Farrah Forke, only just turned 54, has died of cancer. I remember her well from the sitcom Wings in the mid-90s. https://www.msn.com/en-ca/entertainment/tv/news/farrah-forke-wings-and-lois-clark-actor-dies-at-54/ar-AAUwyFo?ocid=msedgdhp&pc=U531

    DEATHS ; Notable Passings; The Thread to Pay Last Respects

    I saw it as well, and do remember seeing it. A great running gag about Kurt Vonnegut. Also, the first thing I ever saw Robert Downey Jr. in.

    Five-Year Cycling Tour of the World - 1939

    In April, 1939, two young lads from Streatham, South London, 19 year-old Eric Wiseman and his mate, 18 year-old Kenneth Raper, with 70 quid between them, embark on a five-year cycling tour of the world! Leaving behind their ho-hum 30/ a week jobs as clerks, they hope to be able to earn a bit of...

    I have been Captain Grammar, Captain Pedantic and GrammarMan on several other sites! The apostrophe plural, however, is my biggest pet peeve! It was my signature here in fact for a while "there is no word in the English language made plural by apostrophe s". I blame, seriously, those people...
