John Dingell. Longest ever serving Congressman. Succeeded by his wife Debbie. I was kind of skeptical about such shennanigans, but I'm a convert. Debbie Does Good. Pologirl and I heard her speak at the first Women's march here in AA and she was impressive. Wasn't a citizen with voting rights when john was our Rep, but locals and respected friends are mourning.

If you've ever toiled within or beneath your car with spanner and Haynes Manual to hand, you'll be sorry to hear of the death of John Haynes.

Who needs pictures when you have a Haynes manual?
It comes with pictures.

Motorsports artist Sam Bass died Feb 16. He was 57.
You may have seen his work at some point; he had pretty distinct style.

Also, Dick Churchill, the last survivor of the actual Great Escape, not the movie, the actual escape from Stalag Luft III.
He was 99. Quote:

I recall that the archaeologists found a number of the powdered milk tins that were used to dig the tunnels in the Great Escape. I'm not a fan of dramatised documentaries but, as a whole, it's worth watching.

Ken Nordine died Saturday at 98.
I guess I thought he died years ago. Someone stole my two albums of his "Word Jazz" and "Son of Word jazz," so they hadn't popped up in going through my LP shelves over the years and stayed gone against hope this morning. He has a shitload of videos on YouTube, however, and I am going through some great old memories as I type. Flibberty Jib, Hunger is From. Looks like its going to Rain!!!! |

OK, that is officially weird. It must be that Ken Nordine didn't affect anyone here but me.
