In case you had not heard and even you had, Davy Jones of the Monkees passed yesterday of a heart attack at 66.



We're going to miss you buddy, those were the days.

P.S. Condolences also to the Breitbart family, Andrew also passed suddenly.

That was my favorite song I played it over and over. RIP Davy. To be honest the last two days of Feb felt like their were lots of deaths. I had family pass, friends had people pass away too. If I believed in bad luck I would say those two days were unlucky.

Hello Steve:

Wow. Breitbart, huh? He was 43. Davy Jones was at least an old fart.

Sorry for everybody's loss. But, gladder that I'm still around.

Celebrity deaths seem to run in 3s. Wonder who will be next.

Glad you're still around, too. And I mean that.

Must see shows when I was a kid . Batman ,Loney Tune cartoons,Abbot and Costello movies , and the Monkees .

And Get Smart.

Hello:

By 1966, I was ALREADY saving the world - AND getting laid a lot.

PS> I'm glad you guys are around too.

1966 ? My world was school ,baseball or football until dark ,or picking up odd mowing and shovelling jobs for cash(started delivering newspapers in 1968), homework ,and with the remaining time the stuff I mentioned above. I was told that I'd be going to Vietnam in 7 years ,but the draft ended the year I graduated from high school.

You guys are only youngsters; by 1966 any threat of me being inducted into the military was past and I began married life. My career was laid out before me, a fresh graduate. Those were simpler days when we niaively thought that the Soviets were a big threat and no one had any interest in the stock market.

I was born in June of 1966... but I am not really that old I will be 18 until I die(good song by the way too)

I was a first grader who liked to sneak into his sister's room to play her records.
