    Rest in peace fella. Loved the original Wallender series. Discovered it some late night holed up in a hotel in Hull several years back. I didn't know he had been diagnosed with cancer.

    Stuart Scott (ESPN USA Sportcenter anchor) RIP

    This is sure to be a popular thread, but for anyone who might care, longtime cancer battler and former ESPN Sportcenter anchor died today. An inspirational man to say the least and will be sadly missed. I guess it would probably be on level with Kammy dying. I grew up with him, Rich Eisen...

    Ian Curtis-32 years On

    Today's the 32nd anniversary of his untimely death. Apparently he was a blue and definitely was an amazing front man and song writer. Joy Division, A Certain Ratio and New Order soundtracked an important part of my life adding some more significance to his life and death for me. Love, love...
