Celebrity Passings

Happy hour starts in 5 minutes
Princess Bride was one of the best movies ever made. Rob Reiner directed the hell out of it.

Well, let's see...

Elden Campbell was a pro basketball player who played mainly with the Lakers. He is still holds the points record for Clemson.

Steve Cropper is one of the greatest guitarists to ever live. He played with Booker T and MG, and the Blues Brothers Band. He was one of the co-writers of Green Onions.

Sir Tom Stoppard was a playwrite and screenwriter. He wrote the screenplay for Shakespeare in Love.

Jimmy Cliff was a reggae, ska, and soul musician.

Are those the ones you were asking about?
 
Oof. Missed Tom Stoppard. Amazing playwright.
 
This Rob and Michele Reiner story is bananas. The son slits the throat of both and is given a 4 million dollar bail? WTF?

I saw the headline about "2 bodies found in Brentwood", but I didn't read it. Went by to see Redskinskinfan and she told me who it was.

I can see the future...assloads of lawyers claiming he SNAPPED...amirite, SkinsFTW ??? :rolleyes:

It's gonna be very hard for his defense unless he's declared unfit to stand trial. Crimes like stabbings and the like are so up close & personal, intent is almost implied unless the defendant can be declared as impaired and unable to assist in their own defense.

I get all of that and agree. What I donā€™t understand is bail being granted.

And I totally agree with you on that...I was in with a chick who was on her 3rd DUI and she didn't get bail.
And she didn't hurt anyone in any of them, just herself.

Now I know that's no real serious comparison, but it kinda is.
 
Craziness in Brentwood

My great grandmother left her house to my brother and I. It was a very swanky neighborhood for sure, like a block or two away from the Reiners.

Her house was very classic old school Hollywood. NLT? It sold for a shit ton of money, compared to what it was bought for. Not to mention many of the things inside of the house

In honor of Rob Reiner I tried to pull up Princes Bride last night. It was only available to purchase, at 14.95. Every other pay movie is like $5. Apparently dynamic pricing has made it's way to cable tv.

I just saw Spinal Tap 2 is available, that and a fire are the plan for tonight. Oddly enough Princes Bride is available to record tomorrow, so the wife nabbed that too.
 
It's such a shame. In Nascar, he was held back by being loyal to a team that didn't deserve it. After nearly 10 years of being out of the limelight, he got attention for piloting his own helicopter to fly supplies to stranded people after North Carolina got hit badly by a hurricane. He kept flying more supply missions this year in Jamaica. After getting well-deserved love and attention, he's gone in a flash in what should have been a trip to Florida for a small racing event, together with his whole family.
