So sad. Can't say this was a surprise at all though. He's been in really bad health for about three years, then his wife died a couple of months ago. I expected this to come soon after.

And always in threes. I wonder who's next in the next few days.

Warren Zevon and Johnny Cash. Two memorable CD's

This should be Breaking News.

I remember back in 1970, Cash visited the White House and President Nixon asked him to sing "Welfare Cadillac". Cash refused.

Well, these two would make three from the world of actors/musicians if you start the count with actor Larry Hovis, who played Carter on "Hogan's Heroes" who passed 9-Sept.

Nope, the "threes" rule only applies to the good ones (or, at least, those who have done relatively little harm). Arafat and the Clintons and their ilk will live to be 100.
