For you youngsters (those born after the last German-made Type 1 rolled off the assembly line in January 1978) Mudcat Grant won't be remembered as an Expo, for whom he went 1 and 6 before being traded to St. Louis for a pitcher who was 0 and 2, but rather as the star pitcher with a record of 21 and 7 for the 1965 pennant winning Minnesota Twins. In the World Series, Grant was 2 and 1 but (fortunately) Koufax pitched a shutout in game 7 against Jim Kaat. |

actress Damaris Hayman, who has died aged 91, was perhaps the last conduit to a bygone age of British comedy, her toothy bonhomie and breezy eccentricity making her a reliable supporting player to many of the big and small screen comedy stars from the 1950s to the 80s. _________________ "we're here on Earth to fart around" kurt vonnegut

The head of what may be the world’s largest family has died in India, according to the director of the hospital where he was treated.
Ziona, who went only by his first name, died on Sunday at the age of 76.
He had 38 wives and 89 children, according to a tweet from Zoramthanga, the chief minister of Mizoram, the northeastern Indian state where Ziona lived.
The patriarch belonged to a Christian tribal sect that promotes polygamy as God’s will. _________________ What are the last 2 words of the National Anthem?

Best show on TV for years!
And there is a VW connection here...

Herb actually did wear a suit made from Volkswagen seat covers.
There's a famous line from the show in the second season episode "Put Up or Shut Up" where Venus Flytrap tells Herb Tarlek, who dependably wears tacky suit after tacky suit, "Somewhere out there, there's a Volkswagen with no seats." Apparently, Herb really did wear a suit on the show that was made out of Volkswagen seat covers. Guess Venus Flytrap has spent his fair share of time in the backseat of a Volkswagen? |

Actor John Paragon has passed at the age of 66. You probably best know him as Jambi, the sassy genie in a jeweled box on Pee-wee's Playhouse. _________________ -=Rob

Daredevil Alex Harvill dies while practicing for a world record motorcycle jump.
From CNN
Daredevil Alex Harvill died Thursday while practicing for a world record motorcycle ramp jump, officials in Washington state said. He was 28 years old.
"Our deepest sympathies go out to Alex's family, friends and loved ones," Grant County Coroner Craig Morrison said in a written statement Thursday.
Harvill, who lived in Ephrata, Washington, was hoping to break the record of a 351-foot jump, according to the Moses Lake Airshow, where his attempt was scheduled on Thursday. _________________ Good Luck

Peel started working for chef-restaurateur Wolfgang Puck at Ma Maison in 1975, and he helped open Spago alongside Puck in West Hollywood in 1982, ushering in a new dining renaissance in Los Angeles. _________________ Good Luck
