BigFatCoward Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 Rip Vivienne Westwood. Mad bastard, but magnificent. They always come in 3's, I'd be worried if I was an 80 year old celeb right now. A Horse Named Stranger, Deadlines?

JGP Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 3 hours ago, Ran said: RIP, Pelé. The man who made football "The Beautiful Game". The most popular goals reel has some rather annoying music, but some great moments from back in the day. I've watched this a few times now, so thank you, Ran. It reminds me of early Gretzky. Just, all these players used to how things were and this phenom comes along and changes everything. Even the goal tenders in some of those shots were stationary observers, just, what the fuck thought bubbles everywhere. Absolutely befuddled by what they just saw lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK, I'm going to be a curmudgeon again and say this does NOT belong in the Rest in Peace thread in "Entertainment". I'm not sure the reference to Greg Bear did either -- the Pope should be in an RIP thread in General Chatter and Bear should be in an RIP thread in Literature, IMHO.

A Horse Named Stranger Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 Arguably, but I think this has turned more into a general rip thread. Would such a thread be better placed in General than in Entertainment probably. But that's merely my view on it. JGP 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dbunting Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 Earl Boen passed from cancer, 81 years old. I rember him best from his roll in Terminator as the Doctor trying to see if they were insane. He was in a lot of stuff but that's who he is to me. Soylent Brown 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myshkin Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 We lost Jeff Beck today. A genuine guitar god.
