Paul Newman died yesterday of cancer at age 83. http://www.imdb.com/news/ni0574069/

He was always one of my favourite actors, and he did several great things for the world with his charity work. I wish he can rest in peace and be remembered by the world.

Lots of celebrities are dying this year. Anyway, I never saw any of his movies (how uncultured of me), but I did see him racing once at a track last year! That was cool.

Actually, craploads of celebrities died last year - just not as famous.

For instance, Robert Wise.

Hmm. With all these deaths it seems pertinent to have a topic to keep track all of them and then discuss them accordingly.

ACTING SPECIES FACING GENOCIDE
The acting species (Homo Facio) is facing a genocide this year. Celebrities, most notably actors are dying at a rate faster than they are reproducing. Experts are consulting the Mayan Calendar for more information.
"We are unsure what to make of these deaths" says Brian S. DeNial, an expert on genocides throughout history. "We do know it is not the first time that happened. So far, we have had deaths of Homo Erectus, Homo Neanderthalis, and Homo Sapiens Sapiens, even if it's not in that order. We suspect that somehow, society is influencing the species with its negative energies when they focus on the deaths of other actors. This negative energy is lethal to Homo Facio, and over time they successfully escape their species. But this is not the first time. The pattern has been going on for years, and only now do we notice and make a big deal around it".
So far, tests are inconclusive. Coming up at eight, the LHC is out of commission, meaning that possibly the Mayan Calendar is inconclusive and that the end of the world will happen a little bit later than the set date, more on that later, at crypticnews.thefaken.isp

He was smiling... That's right. You know, that, that Luke smile of his. He had it on his face right to the very end. Hell, if they didn't know it 'fore, they could tell right then that they weren't a-gonna beat him. That old Luke smile. Oh, Luke. He was some boy. Cool Hand Luke. Hell, he's a natural-born world-shaker.

We'll miss you.
