That is indeed sad, we lost a legend.

Goodbye and farewell, RIP.

R.I.P. Sean Connery, he made quite a few movies very memorable. :(

90 is a pretty good innings, but sad news nonetheless. RIP best Bond.

Lord Sacks, former Chief Rabbi, journalist and writer, politician and philosopher died yesterday.

I don't care for his religious views any more than those of anybody else, but I held his dignity, gentleness, care for others and articulate nature in high regard.

I don't know who Alex Trebek was but I just watched this on Youtube. He actually looks like he was one of the genuinely nice guys that will be missed.

Peter Sutcliffe, evil bastard that he was, died yesterday(?). I remember the terror at the time, but wasn't old enough to really understand it.
