Rambling observations on books, history, movies, transit, obsolete technology, baseball, and anything else that crosses my mind.

This has been a terrible few days. Little Richard died of cancer. I have always liked Little Richard, and I had several of his 45s. I used to play "Tutti Frutti" at 78. He was one of the founders of rock'n'roll.

Betty Wright also died of cancer. I loved hearing "Clean Up Woman" on KFRC. She was co-composer on "Where Is the Love".

Jerry Stiller had a great gift and he shared it. I remember seeing Stiller and Meara on the Ed Sullivan Show. Their routines often showed up on comedy shows on the radio.
