Electric word life

There's something else
The afterworld.

Don't trivialize him as an 80s icon, the man was a genius.
ReplyDeleteDavid Kutcher I didn't say he was only an 80s icon, but he certainly was at least an 80s icon, so he would belong in that set.
ReplyDeleteI liked him best when his name was a symbol. That was hilarious and brilliant at the same time.
ReplyDeleteSo many great musicians and actors dying this year, Why?
ReplyDeleteJames Graham Because the baby boomer celebrities were much more numerous than those previously limited to TV prominence, and our current social media set-up is much better at bubbling up this kind of human interest trivia (like who ever heard of Chyna until she died?) http://www.bbc.com/news/entertainment-arts-36108133
