Bruce Springsteen's 'Glory Days': Inspiration for Song Dead at 75
I always thought the dude in this song (if real) was more the butt of a joke than someone who would want to be known for it. |

I was born and raised in freehold. My mom and uncle went to school with him. My dad was friends with his mom. He was the town pharmacist and Bruce mentions him in concert sometimes before doing my hometown.

Evidently Nicky Katt committed suicide a couple of weeks ago. Surprised I hadn't heard about it anywhere. He wasn't a massive star, but he seemed to pop up everywhere in the late 90s and mid 2000s. Had probably the second most memorable line from Dazed and Confused.

Never heard of the guy, but that bio suggests he was the heir apparent to William Zabka.

Not sure how famous, but I was today years old when I learned that Kevin Love's dad played in the NBA and was the brother of Beach Boy Mike Love. He passed away.

Mike Peters, lead singer of 80s band The Alarm died this morning, fought leukemia for 30 years and it finally won.
I checked their discography and they had a good number of hits in the USso maybe he counts as famous. |

Either (or both) it was so long ago I don't remember it, or I don't really listen to announcers all that much.

RIP George Wendt. Thought he was much older than he was.

George Wendt Reactions: 'Cheers' Stars Ted Danson, Rhea Perlman Pay Tribute
Cliff, Sam, and Carla pay their respects. I not only liked him in Cheers, I LOVED him in Fletch! He really showed acting chops there. Also remember guest spots like Spin City. and even Top Chef. The last 10 years, he had been making little appearances here and there on things and had a great look with his silver do |

This story just got insane. Apparently murdered in cold blood by a former neighbor in front of his partner because they were gay. |

Orrrrr because the voice actor had a history of creating problems in the neighborhood, including with this particular neighbor. 'King of the Hill' Actor Had Long Feud With Neighbor Accused of Fatal Shooting Combine that story with Joss' ... questionable ... behavior at a convention just a few days ago and, well ... not so cut & dried.

That'll be for a jury to decide. I'm just saying that there's every bit as much indication that this was a case of FAFO as it was the narrative you wanted to promote.

Local San Antonio reporters interviewed neighbors who talked about how Joss would be paranoid about people being just past the chainlink fenceline of the property where the shooting occurred. He would even have issues with people driving past the lot, never mind being just off the property. The lot had a house that was his childhood home, but the house burned down in January. Joss and the shooter apparently had a long running feud. Whether Joss was experiencing depression or mental illness, who knows, but it seems like there are a lot of variables in play here... |

They killed his dog and displayed it out front and when they were upset about that guy came out and shot at them. He pushed his husband out of the way. The murderer is a real piece of shit |

The dog died in the fire according to all reports. But you go ahead & believe what you want I guess. I mean, a guy who burned down his own house while heating it with a bbq pit, who regularly got on his roof & banged on pots & pans, I'm sure he's completely an innocent victim.

The amount my dad hates the Beach Boys is kind of surprising. I guess he's always just seen them as this teenie bopper boy band from his youth who made music before it became "cool".

I don't think my dad is fond of them either. (I don't think he'd wish for Wilson's death as a birthday present, but I don't think he liked the band much.)
