I ain't made up my mind about Toledo, but I am fine with the Easter Bunny hippity-hopping down the Bunny Trail.

Riley B. King - B. B. King - arguably the best guitarist of the age.
His techniques, tones and rhythms profoundly influenced all blues and rock guitarists these last 60 years.

6 days after Lauren Becall.
Don Pardo - Wikipedia Have been sitting on that one because I discovered it late, but now seems to be a good time. As I recall from the above cited (read it quite a while back), Don Pardo was doing his thing at Saturday Night Live right up close to the time of his death (although sometimes it was prerecorded elsewhere). You can try to find the Youtube clip of him narrating with Frank Zappa doing "The Slime", back in about 1976. The version I had bookmarked is no longer available, although I did do an audio capture to save. That may have been the earliest SNL I saw (it, IIRC, started in 1975).

"Do not meddle in the affairs of cats, for they are subtle and will piss on your computer." - Bruce Graham "The modern conservative is engaged in one of man's oldest exercises in moral philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness." - John Kenneth Galbraith "Yesterday on Fox News, commentator Glenn Beck said that he believes President Obama is a racist. To be fair, every time you watch Glenn Beck, it does get a little easier to hate white people." - Conan O'Brien "I know a little about a lot of things, and a lot about a few things, but I'm highly ignorant about everything." - Moose |
