In Memoriam

Colin Powell has died from COVID complications.

He was fully vaccinated, or so I read. Scary.

Yes, but he was also 84 and had cancer. I hope you're in neither category.

Me personally, no. But scary in general, for older people especially.

A far more respectable Republican I could support than the garbage of the moment. RIP CP.

Sean Connery has died at age 90.

Scratch that - year old story.
For some reason popped up on my bbc feed.

He was my favorite Bond until Daniel Craig recreated the character.

May he Rest in Peace.

I thought it was familiar.

And yet somehow, still alarming and sad to see it written out.

Wow, our memory banks just refused to store that data.

It was fresh in my memory from the Celebrity Jeopardy connection. "Real" Alex Trebek & Sean Connery - reminded by the death of Turd Ferguson.

A very recognizable face that I could not place a name for. He was good. May the universe welcome him.

As a sci-fi guy I know him as "Number One."

He was brilliant in Blue Velvet

Even though I didn't watch it a ton, I definitely think of him as being from Quantum Leap. In terms of excellent roles though, him and Mercedes Ruehl stole the show in Married to the Mob. Priceless. RIP.

And thanks for that. Indeed, now he becomes clearer.
