David Bowie from 'Cracked Actor' Documentary, LA, 1974

David Bowie


Meant different things to different people, and redefined himself for each new generation.*  So what pic. to use ?  May as well go with the less obvious, the less familiar.  RIP.


* For me, it will always be the Ziggy Stardust album, Life on Mars, and the early 80's work.  But, as I said...  For some out there, it could be The Laughing Gnome.

Whitney Houston: Saving All My Love For You


Can't say that I was familiar with the name of Michael Masser, but turns out I was certainly familiar with his work, via this list at The Telegraph.  To have written just a couple of those would be one hell of an legacy.  RIP.

And why Whitney here, and not Diana ?  That voice.

Tariq Aziz


Not a fan, but thought this was worth remembering: That within recent living memory, one of the leading figures in a majority-Arab, majority-Muslim government in the Middle East was a Christian.  Today, the few remaining Christians in many countries in that part of the world are being murdered en masse.  Including and perhaps especially in Iraq...

RIP
