Re: More Sad News
More old and tired. Mea culpa. Somehow, someway, I thought this was new news. Instead celebrating the 2nd Anniversary of his demise. Sigh...
Sorry...

Re: More Sad News
At our age, a lot of news is sad news. We expect that. It would be really good if you're going to post an obit or other unpleasant thing about one of our people if you just put the person's name in the subject line and nothing else Not Sad News, there is already too much of that.

Re: More Sad News
as as a card-carrying member of the blues foundation, celebrating the anniversary of james cotton's passing is not something i'd be inclined to do. mourning it would seem more appropriate.
however, cotton had battled throat cancer over. the last couple of decades. so, if he was stil suffering i suppose i canagree to rejoicing his demise from this mortal coil.
