From the Oatmeal:
"I'm starting to suspect that George R.R. Martin is the author behind 2016." |

Just seen this on the BBC website. A great director, with important work to his name. At least he had a good old innings. RIP. |

RIP. Always thought his were the best of the Bond movies. Battle of Britain and Force 10 from Navarone were also old favorites. Not to mention the others....

Given the 22 age difference between you and I then that doesn't quite explain it. Also why does this year seem worse that last year, yet 2015 didn't seem any different to the year before? |

This day just keeps getting worse. First Prince, and now Richard Lyons of satiric sound collage gods Negativland.

There is no reason or explanation. It's simply random coincidence. |

it's the only thing that made me smile today. Also, let us hope that Mr. Martin remains ignorant of the existence of other musicians who I shall not name here lest they attract his attention. I'm not sure I can take much more of this.

On an unrelated note, Teo, I've been thinking a lot about you after the quake of a few days ago. Hope your family and friends in Ecuador are OK! I know how it feels when such a disaster strikes one's country. The Abruzzo earthquake happened just a few months after I'd moved here.

 None of my family and friends were affected but a large area in the coastal region was and there's a lot of damage, homeless people and death (557 so far, thousands wounded). A truly terrible catastrophe.

Glad to hear that all your loved ones are safe, but very sorry to hear that so many are not. What is the best way to donate funds to help? The Red Cross?

Oh, and yesterday I forgot to quote my all-time favorite line about Prince, by the movie critic Pauline Kael (in her review of Purple Rain):
"I'm disposed to like Prince because he is, as a friend of mine put it, 'the fulfillment of everything that people like Jerry Falwell say rock 'n' roll will do to the youth of America'."
