Ed Iskendarian. If you're a gear head you'll know the name. Used to take pride in having the sticker that came with the cam on the window of my POS when I was a kid. Brilliant man who lived to be a 104 yrs. old. Hope they got a good cigar for you up there Ed. Godspeed.

I have seen him in Geronimo countless times and loved it every time. I watched Second Hand Lions two weeks ago. It's a good one too. I think it's time to watch some others when I have a chance. He certainly had an impressive career.

He’ll be back - He done whooped everything on earth - got tired of waiting for the Grim Reaper so he went to find that chicken———, soon we will all be immortal.
Thanks Chuck

Not sure why but when I was a kid in the 70s I was a huge Dodgers fan.

Everyone knows the song but may not be able to place his name.

Thanks Bryan. Take this job and shove it was written by David Allen but got popular with a singer named Johnny Paycheck. Johnny Paychecks name was a dig at Johnny Cash. Outlaw country music...They even made a movie with Bigfoot (the truck) featuring that song. DAC was controversial but had some good tunes.

. . . Johnny Paychecks name was a dig at Johnny Cash . . .

I had no idea. I learn something new every day. Thanks!

Dennis Locorriere. Founding member of Dr. Hook and did a lot of the vocals. I always knew when they played Dr. Hook at party's it was time to go home. Lots of great tunes but probably my favorite was 'Roland the Roadie' but they had many great tunes that would get me shuffling feet. Unfortunately I look like Julia Louise Dreyfuss from Seinfeld when dancing. It was still a good time. God speed Dennis.

[pinnacle-project]

WOW! This was certainly a shock when I saw it on the evening news tonight. Only 41 years old. He was a polarizing driver but I would like to think even the fans who did not care for him respected his skills.

Just saw this on the news feed. Love him or hate him - the man had talent and was taken way too soon. RIP Rowdy.

Good guy from the golden era of NASCAR. His son Dale was a favorite when I was watching NASCAR. I think Dale followed his dad's footsteps and was a commentator for a bit just like his dad.
