Does it always come in threes?

This past week saw the deaths of three very different individuals who whether they wanted to or not influenced most our lives.

Those of my generation will always have fond memories of "Here's Johnny!", a blond bombshell playing detective, and later going on to stand up for women's rights, and finally a very talented black performer who changed the way the world would watch music videos and see music altogether.

All three should be remembered for the smiles, joy and hope they brought. The side issues and controversies are in the past. There will always be "Doubt" but what is important is the good they did and the inspiration they brought to at least two generations.

I lift my Yuengling Black & Tan to Farrah, Ed & Michael and wish them peace everlasting, and the hope that they were all comfortably settled in Heaven before the Devil knew they were dead!

Thanks!
Rest in Peace!
