Quicksand Fans

Man, this is starting to get really bad...

First we loose David Carradine, then Ed McMahon, and now we've lost Farrah...

I loved watching Charlie's Angels and Farrah was my favorite. As the article notes, she's now up in Heaven with real angels.

We'll miss you, Farrah.

My radio has been hi-jacked tonight by people discussing whether some annoying pop star has or has not died. This is highly aggravating.

Ah yes, THE poster. Sitting, legs curled up in the one piece bathing suit. It was simply the best poster ever - every guy I knew had it in 1976 at school in Pennsylvania. She was a better actress than what she did in Charlie's Angels - something she got to show later in life. It hasn't been a good few weeks for the 40-to-50-something crowd - we've lost some notable parts of our younger experience.

I'll never forget seeing that poster in the rack at "Big K" . I was with five other guys that I hung with, the "chain gang" as my father referred to us, and we all collectively stopped and gazed in wonder. She was a knockout with a slender, somewhat modest, physique that hit guys our age right between the eyes. And that suit covered her like two coats of Dutch Boy barn paint. I never missed Charlies Angels after that. As we aged together I found her still very interesting when she did Playboy years later.

She will live forever in the warmer places of the hearts of men our age.

With something so lovely taken away we have had yet another demonstration of how the inexplicable forces of our universe function to keep things in balance. An offsetting transfer of hideous human refuse has been consigned to the nether regions at the same time. The Gloved One, His Weirdness, The King of Pop, special friend to little boys and animals everywhere, the person who proved beyond the slightest shadow of a doubt that Elvis was dead, has himself departed this dimension.

May his legacy be a million rude jokes and rumors.

AND we've lost Michael Jackson on top of that! He may have had a lot of big problems over the years, but I miss his better days a lot. Those 80's times were great when Michael was known for "Thriller", "Beat It", his dancing, and the like. It sure has been quite a week for celebrity deaths!

Let's not forget Ed McMahon either... the ultimate side kick...

Yeah, I heard that due to the fact that the King of Pop was 99% plastic, he's going to be melted down into lego blocks so that little boys can play with him for a change!

I am more sorry to see Farrah and Ed depart, but sadly, it will be overshadowed in the media by this sorry excuse for a pop icon. Farrah was such a hottie, and put up one hell of a fight; and Ed McMahon...well, he contributed to alot more than MJ ever did.....plus he never had an obsession for little boys! I grieve for both one of Charlie's Angels, and the Ultimate Sidekick.....

And as for Michael Jackson....let's all just grab our crotch, observe a moment of silence, and just Beat It!

Q: what's the difference between Farrah and Jacko?
A: One screwed Majors, and the other screwed minors.....

And a genuine war hero in both WWII and Korea.
