And another piece of my childhood gone (Angelis was actually the UK narrator of the show when George Carlin and later Alec Baldwin narrated it in the US)

 

Goodbye Michael, thank you for everything you ever did with my favourite steam locomotives.

 

RIP Mr. Stempel.

If you haven’t yet, see the movie “Quiz Show”; it features John Turturro as Herb Stempel and is basically all about the game show scandal he kickstarted.

P.S., I actually didn’t know he was, until now, still alive

 

Man, I remember when Wes Unseld was coaching the Bullets, those teams were horrible, they were one of those can't get-right teams, seems like he got stuck with a bunch of talented slackers and headcases. You felt even worse for him when you found out he was a beast in his playing days. RIP MR. Unseld.

I did see about the bassist passing from the band Sweet. I follow Charlie Benante of Anthrax on Twitter and he tweeted about it. Which i can't ever remember hearing Sweets music. Very sad indeed cause they paved the way for other music.

 

A sample for your enjoyment. Later Steve.

 

Thanks dear friend i really appreciate it. I've heard that song before but had no idea it was the band Sweet.
