Actor Tom Sizemore passed away yesterday age 61. Rest in peace.

I read the other day that his family was having to make end-of-life decisions and I was saddened that he might soon be on this list. He was a terrific character actor and really made the most of his screen time. I didn’t always like his character, but I always liked his acting.

RIP, Mr. Sizemore, and thanks for sharing your talents. Condolences to your fans, family, friends and loved ones.

Actor Robert Blake died last Thursday at 89. He was a lot of fun to watch on screen, though his murder trial overshadowed a lot of his work.

The Oscars "In Memoriam" segment (linked below) included a few well-known names that had slipped by me (and probably our 2022 list): Louise Fletcher, Irene Cara, and Vangelis (the composer probably best known for the theme song to "Chariots of Fire").
RIP to all and thanks for sharing your talents.

I sold my collection of mad magazines and books on Ebay a number of years ago. I more than got my money back and I never read an issue that I felt was not worth it's price.

Wow to each their own, so what did you do with the cash?

 

[olbriar]

I have no idea now. I sold books from the mid fifties to mid sixties as a collection though not complete. My sister and I read each a number of times. They weren't pristine but weren't abused. They needed to be in a collectors hands instead of my shed.
