Wow. Not sure how many know people the extent to which liberation theology impacted Latin America and the Catholic Church in the second half of the 20th Century.

I can’t think of a song Phil wrote, but he was there on every song
The idea that the richest man in the world needs to protect his future worth from dropping him to still the richest man in the world is sublimely ridiculous.

Hunter wrote the lyrics, the music is Lesh. Lesh’s father was dying and Phil would visit him every day; he communicated his feelings to Hunter who then wrote the lyrics.
That goes without saying.

One of my first media crushes. I actually first noticed her in the Sonny and Cher show when I was a yute.

Cloris Leachman has also passed away. Wow.
The Terri Garr news made me vaguely recall that Madeleine Kahn had passed away a few years back.
I looked it up.
She died in 1999.
Good grief.
