Also, Dick Gregory died Saturday night.

He was 84.

Jay Thomas, dead at 69.

The headline that I clicked read "Cheers Favorite Jay Thomas Dies At 69"...

Jay Thomas (at the time appearing on Cheers as Carla's boyfriend/husband/whatever) that he had the hardest job in Hollywood, he had to kiss Rhea Perlman. They killed him off the show after that. His character was run over by A Zamboni. Yeah, I would call that being a favorite.

YouTube 'Jay Thomas Lone Ranger Story', though, you won't be disappointed. Very funny. There is more than one instance of him telling this story on Letterman, it's kind of a tradition.

Tobe Hooper, director of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, died this past Saturday. He also adapted Salem's Lot into the 1979 mini-series. Didn't know that.

Half of country duo Montgomery Gentry, Troy Gentry, died in a helicopter crash on his way to a show. He was 50.

When will people learn, the only people who should be in helicopters should not be paying for it, they should be paid or drafted.

Author Jerry Pournelle has died. On Sept. 8th.

The only book of his I read was Footfall, written with Larry Niven, as were several other novels.

I was in a freedom-challenged period of my life.

That novel was a great escape.

Loved that novel. Intertwining stories and easter eggs for sci-fi enthusiasts. Everyone should know who the scientist with a head like a bullet and a razor mustache was.

Sorry to hear about Pournelle's passing.
