Adam Sandler died? Is this a hoax? EDIT: I think this is a hoax. I google it and saw the story of his death also dated Sept. & then in Oct. 2012 Must be fake. Who would do such an awful thing?  http://adam.sandler.mediafetcher.com/news/top_stories/actor_skiing.phpTIS

It appears that this is a hoax that's been around for several months...and still won't die (the hoax, that is). Click here. Signor V.

SV, I did some checking too and it appears to be a hoax. What a terrible thing to do. I am not a fan of Sandler's movies/comedy but certainly am glad it's not true. I can not believe anyone would start such a vicious story.  TIS

Who would do such an awful thing? Well, after Sandler's performance at the 12-12-12 concert, only one name springs to mind: Leonard Cohen!  Signor V.

Senator Daniel K. Inouye (D-Hawaii) passed away December 17 at age 88.  The New York Times called him "Hawaii's quiet voice of conscience in the Senate." NY Times obituary Wikipedia article A huge loss to the political world; the long-serving Inouye was greatly respected by virtually everyone. Not sure if anyone had him on their list. Signor V.

http://www.detroitnews.com/article/20121...-in-Los-AngelesLos Angeles — Jack Klugman, who made an art of gruffness in TV's "The Odd Couple" and "Quincy, M.E.," has died at the age of 90.
The actor's son Adam says his father died Monday afternoon in Los Angeles.
In the 1970s sitcom "The Odd Couple," Klugman played sloppy sports writer Oscar to co-star Tony Randall's Felix, a fussy photographer. In "Quincy, M.E.," which aired from 1976 to 1983, Klugman played an idealistic, tough-minded medical examiner.
"When the snows fall and the white winds blow, the lone wolf dies but the pack survives."
Winter is Coming
Now this is the Law of the Jungle—as old and as true as the sky; And the wolf that shall keep it may prosper, but the wolf that shall break it must die.
As the creeper that girdles the tree-trunk, the Law runneth forward and back; For the strength of the Pack is the Wolf, and the strength of the Wolf is the Pack.

I just heard that Charles Durning died. He was 89.
A damned fine actor, he'll be remembered as one of the better character actors of the era. My favorite role of his was in "The Choirboys", a better movie than it's usually reviewed.
wasn't he in O brother Where Out Thou?

Yes, Charles Durning was in Queen of the Stardust Ballroom, and O Brother, Where Art Thou?, among many, many others. (Best Little Whorehouse in Texas and The Sting also come to mind.)
A fine actor, who pretty much kept working right up until the end.

His obit said he was a dance instructor as a young man. I loved the scene in "O Brother" where he comes dancing on the stage when the Soggy Bottom Boys are singing "Man of Constant Sorrow." Now I know why he looked to nimble in his dance routine.
