News of singer John Fogerty’s death spread quickly earlier this week causing concern among fans across the world. However, the August 2025 report has now been confirmed as a complete hoax and just the latest in a string of fake celebrity death reports. Thankfully, Creedence Clearwater Revival frontman is alive and well.

I love rock and roll!
Credence never quite was my favorite.
I’m more (Led Zeppelin or Lynyrd Skynyrd).
However they entertained a generation
and I’m glad the man is still alive.

So, he’s not dead.

He’s just the Old Man Down the Road.

Willie understands this...

Still Not Dead
Willie Nelson

“I woke up still not dead again today
The internet said I had passed away
If I died I wasn’t dead to stay
And I woke up still not dead again today”

I once phoned a Christian radio station and asked them if they had any songs by Christian Cross Revival.

Like Proud Mary.
Fortunate Son.
Walk on the Water.

They said they never heard of the band.

He's no millionaires son.

True, but just about a year ago, he set out on the road, looking for fame and fortune and that elusive pot of gold.

From Indiana here and I actually got to see Lodi. It’s in California and we took a wrong turn and a few miles later we went through this little town in the Central Valley. Right there was a sign saying LODI. Instantly I yelled “CCR” and my wife about jumped out of her seat🤣.

It was full of foreigners with turbans on. Or at least the part I saw.

What the hell are we doing to our own nation?, trying to give it away?
rhetorical question——

There is a Lodi, New Jersey, also.
In the 60s, my dad had a factory there that made a kid’s toy product that was soapy. You would dip in a little hoop and blow in it and make bubbles.
Every so often, the nearby river would overflow and flood the factory and there would be soap and suds everywhere!
He sold the factory before the EPA came into being, thank goodness.

I learned a long time ago; those pop-up blurbs were just click bait.
