oh, and --
i may have missed the LJ-ness of this while i was away, but i learned while i was home at my parents' house that gregory hines died last monday. it was tuesday or wednesday that TNT was showing his episode of law & order, and in a commercial my dad turns to me and says "you know, he just died."
me: gregory hines?
dad: yes.
me: no, dad, gregory peck just died.
dad: him too.
and sure enough, the show ended and a frame came up that said "in memory of gregory hines". damn shame. young guy. (cancer. only 57.)
same day as herb brooks was killed, which people must have mentioned and i just wasn't looking. here's bok's cartoon, which ran on wednesday (i'd link to the post, but the editorial cartoons come up in new windows and every time i try to figure out the URL it's different and takes me somewhere else):
