Ernie Banks and Minnie Minoso, only about a month apart. Sad year for Chicago baseball so far.

British author Sir Terry Pratchett has died at age 66.

Probably one of the most unique fantasy authors ever (IMO), he wrote more than 70 novels, including the popular Discworld series. Diagnosed several years ago with early-onset Alzheimer's disease, he continued to write as well as becoming an advocate for assisted suicide.

Don't know about the other guys but was a longtime fan of Mike Porcaro of Toto. The entire band consisted of gifted and top notch professional musicians. He had ALS which totally destroyed him. Hope that he's in a much better place now. He will be greatly missed.

Actor Robert Z'Dar has died at age 64, while in Pensacola, Florida for an appearance at a convention. He starred in the "Maniac Cop" films, appeared in "Mobsters", "Tango and Cash" and many other films.

It's ironic that the best looking guy in The Beatles (Pete Best) was kicked out of the band and replaced by Ringo Starr.

Wonder why?

The great Stan Freberg died today at age 88. A famous humorist, satirist, voice artist (he was the voice of Marvin the Martian in the old Warner Bros. cartoons) and comedian, he will truly be missed.

Not often that it's not exaggeration to say something was iconic or emblematic of an era, but his performance of that song sure qualifies.
