Stayin' alive, stayin' alive,... oops!
My wife, who's still living in the 70's, will be sad to hear this. OK, maybe me, too.

Richard Dawson, Family Feud host, and 'Newkirk' on Hogan's Heroes, dead at 79.
So, the only surviving member of the regular cast of Hogan's Heroes is Robert Clary ("LeBeau"), who is 86. As a teenager, Clary was actually sent to a Nazi concentration camp in 1942, and was in Buchenwald, when it was liberated, in '45.

Seems like doing a TV series (even a comedy) about a German POW camp would hit a little too close to home for a concentration camp survivor! That would give me anxiety.

Bob Welch, formerly of Fleetwood Mac, dead at 65.
Welch died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. The sentimental wind turned cold.
Too sad.
