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.

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.

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.
