Sad day with the passing of Robbie Robertson.

dang sorry to hear of Robertson's passing. "The Band". I remember getting the dvd of "The Last Waltz" which I watched dozens of times. He had ties to Dylan and Scorsese . a great career..

One of the few talk show hosts I could actually like. Some I can stand for what they are, some I just can't listen to for more than a couple of minutes, Graham Norton I don't really like himself but his ability to put his guests at ease makes his show watchable and even enjoyable when the guests are good, but Parkie? Class act. Top of the lot.

Prigoschin, reportedly in an airplane crash. Who'da' thunk it.

Along with 9 others. I guess they, the 9, were just at the wrong place, at the wrong time.😲

Murdered I would have guessed.

That is so obvious. Equally obviously, there won’t be a transparent investigation of the cause of the crash, but Putin’s opponents will assume the plane was shot down.

There were, supposedly, two jets. 🤔 Did he and Putin arrange for a…disappearance?🫢

We will not know what happened but an accident doesn't seem plausible.

I think people were just thinking about when it would happen not if.
