Same here. I knew who they were. It's a sad development indead. I loved Johnny Cash's music, and John Ritter was hillarious. They will definitely be missed.

Edward Teller died too, and Leni Riefenstal. Odd coincidence.

Nope. He died just the day before yesterday, or the day before that, not entirely sure.

And a minister was assassinated in Sweden just a day or so ago, iirc her name was Anna Lindh.

I have a favorite site I like to go to for finding out if certain celebrites are alive or dead. It is called, Who's Alive and Who's Dead

It has links to other very good similar sites.

Of course, the crappy Swedish police will never find the murderer of Anna Lindh. History repeats itself.

No. They were chasing the wrong person all the time.

It´s actually VERY likely that the murderer of Anna Lindh (Swedens foreign minister) is going to get caught. The police has got the knife with which she was murdered, the murderers bloody shirt and his cap. They have even got an very good (not in a humorous meaning) photograph of him, taken by the security-cameras. Fingerprints are likely to be found and maybe even DNA. And what more, the murder was committed in daytime in the middle of an warehouse! Tens of people saw it happen and even more saw the bloody murderer run away. There are numerous eye-witnessess.

The only thing I wonder is why nobody stopped the murderer while he was running away. Sure, he had a knife but still? There is a thing like civil-courage, is there not? If this had happened in Finland somebody would surely have stepped forward and simply hit him to the ground. Or then maybe not. Who knows. But I still think it´s wierd.

Anna Lindh was a great foreign minister and was probably going to be Swedens next prime minister.

Stalin said "One death is a tragedy, a thousand is a statistic".

For the Anna Lindh case, they have DNA and someone did interfere, a woman in red which has been heard by the police.

Ahh, I believe John Ritta had a stroke right on the set of his show. Very similar to the guy who played Fred Sanford. Atleast he died doing what he loved to do. I believ Johnny Cash died after a long battle with cance. Johnny Cash, Barry Whit, and the guy who sang Warewolfs of London all died near each other. It's strange that musciacians die in threes.

Musicials also like dying at the age of 23 too.

Cash was a champ, and Ritter was good friends with the Grant Naylor entity that wrote Red Dwarf, My Family and had a hand in so many other good Brit comedy shows.

Ritter will be sorely missed by the Brit comedy community, bugger it.

In other news, does anyone know the show Coupling? I think they were going to "Americanise" it for the yanks, but the original will always be the best. One of the actors from Pirates Of The Caribbean is in it - Commodore Norrington. He was good friends with Ritter.

55 so young. I did hear he was on crack or coke in his younger day. That probily contribute to his stroke. That's what happens when you do bad stuff.
