Sometimes, the right people are in the right place at the right time. :)

Sad to hear that even his death was kept quiet for this long :( RIP Stanislav, and of course Albert too.

On Tom Petty:
Tom Petty, the rocker best known as the frontman of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, is clinging to life in a Los Angeles hospital, according to TMZ. An earlier LAPD report which confirmed the singer's death, and which CBS reported, has since been clarified.

The legendary musician suffered a full cardiac arrest and was found unconscious and not breathing in his Malibu home Sunday night. He was taken to UCLA Santa Monica Hospital and put on life support, reports TMZ.

TMZ

1:35 PM PT -- Sources tell us at 10:30 Monday morning a chaplain was called to Tom's hospital room. We're told the family has a do not resuscitate order on Tom. The singer is not expected to live throughout the day, but he's still clinging to life. A report that the LAPD confirmed the singer's death is inaccurate -- the L.A. County Sheriff's Dept. handled the emergency.

12:30 PM PT -- We're told after Petty got to the hospital he had no brain activity and a decision was made to pull life support.

Sorry to hear about the loss of your friend :(

I learned about this awhile ago, and felt the need to post my sadness about it.

I don't think Manson deserves peace. May he rot in hell.

We've had re-peace-ing mentions in the past... ;)

RIP

Quite sad. Years ago saw him rolling down Colorado Blvd. here in Pasadena in Old Town with his handlers likely looking for some food.

RIP My Lai, 50 years ago today.

Hope you're faring well on the other side, mister Lee. Thanks for all the Marvels you've given us.

I'll miss you Rutger. You made great films, always enjoyed them. Even the B and C ones.
