Robert Vaughn (man from UNCLE) popped his clogs as well. :(
not a massive fan or anything, just oh - another celeb dead...
*pause for thought*
I think maybe 2016 isn't like -- everyone great is dead -- but from now on its kinda the tipping point, so many people are famous and more are made every day (looking at shit like 'I'm a b list celeb - get me outta here") so maybe just critical mass of famous people who are inevitably going to die?

The thing is, these are the people who we "know" quite well because we are all around 40 years of age - at least - and their deaths seem a bit surprising, but they are not: Robert Vaughn died at 83, Cohen was 82, Mancuso was 72, Bowie was 69.

I was much into Cohen, but didn't say anything because this 2016 is taking too many of my heroes away.

^^ Agreed, the thing about getting older is that our 'heroes' are getting older too and they don't have a physical eternal life. Perhaps Prince was a bit young (57) but an overdose fentanyl is a great way to prevent people for all the 'getting older' issues...

^Yes, and Leon Russel.

and Florence Henderson - mother in the Brady Bunch

I know, no politics... but sometimes I have some mixed feelings.
Fidel is dead and I'm not gonna miss him... but partying people in Miami?
I hope they are partying for a better future, and not for the fact they skipped the history classes.
Batista was even a bigger asshole than Castro.. .

[bizcuit]

Ah no worries, don't think Castro's going to mind too much. :P Besides I don't think it's so much a celebration of the guys death, just think Cubans really like to party.

Florence Henderson was a really nice person. Farewell.

Capt. Obvious told me:

Palmer will be next.

Zsa Zsa "MILF" Gabor died. When I heard it on the radio, I said to my self: "Wut, she died again?"

I call everyone 'Darling' because I can't remember their names.

OG MILF RIP

[dkeg]

My sweet dog. We miss her so. She had a great life though. Still kind of in denial. Seems so surreal.

Our condolences Drew.
