  That's a tragedy, but spare a thought for the other boxer, he has to live with that.

  The legendary Godfather of gore, Hershell Gordon Lewis, passed away at age 90 on September 26.
  
  
  
  This is the man who fed us controversial classics like Blood Feast, The Gruesome Twosome, 2000 Maniacs and Just for the Hell of It. I'm sure he would be pleased with my saying,
  
  Hershell, Rest In Pieces!

  Some serious longevity with some of these recent passings. 90 is the new 70?

  Very sad news. Such a brilliant songwriter for Michael Jackson and others. He was in the band Heatwave too.

  I've just learned that Pierre Tchernia, one of the pioneers of French television, had died tonight, aged 88. He was a part of my life since my parents bought their first TV, way back in 1965, and his shows ("l'ami Public n° 1" and SVP Disney" about Walt Disney's movies, "Monsieur Cinéma", which made of me the movie lover that I am, and so many others) have become legendary in France. Right now, I'm very, very sad.

  A friend of mine died last Friday. He was 67, fellow Krav Maga student and sound engineer by trade. Sweet man, always working, doing what he loved. Farewell old rocker.
