Generalissimo Francisco Franco is still dead!
Madrid - UPI. 45 years after the ailing dictator's fall from power, Spanish doctors have reported that Francisco Franco is still dead and his condition is unlikely to improve.

FUCKITY FUCK FUCK FUCK, Just found out about Neil. Best drummer in rock of all time.
I remember growing up, staying up all night, listening to the local rock station, waiting to use a cassette tape to record "Tom Sawyer".

We used to get back packers drifting through when I was stationed in Sicily. They knew we were good for a visit to the base for an American hamburger and fries. I routinely introduced them to new music from the US. The base Exchange kept the album section up to date. 8-tracks lagged behind for some reason. They were very grateful to hear the new stuff after a year or so of wandering around Europe. Sometimes I'd buy an airplane ticket back to the State in exchange for their minibus. Married sailors grabbed those as soon as I put them up for sale.

When I saw KISS in 1975 the warm up was Styx.....
I saw kiss in the 80s and the warm up group was Bon Jovi.

Guy who played high schooler who lied to Monica in "Friends" about his age died. His name was Stan Kirsch.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
