1. Longtime NOLA newsman Alec Gifford passed away today.
  2. Roger Ebert just croaked.
  3. Did he? I had just heard a report this morning that he had been diagnosed with another form of cancer.
  4. Dayum, they are dropping like flies!!!!

    Glad I am not famous.
  5. Its the tinfoil hat that's saving you, not the lack of fame.

  6. Not Annette!

    And you wonder why she was the most popular mouseketeer . . .
  7. She was not only cute, but she was a true pioneer. The Annette style of music changed popular music forever.
  8. Not a bad legacy, considering she once said she didn't want to audition for the Mouseketeers because they told her she'd have to sing.
