Warning: YOU may die trying...!"

A dear one's uncle has passed away.
And today was the funeral.

R.I.P. Uncle Manuel

Your wife,
your children,
your niece, Sharon Dundon
and all those who knew you
miss you so much.

You are, however
in the better place;
the greater reality;
the more awesome aspect
of this life as we perceive it.

Say hi to my dear ones
who are already there...

July Death Toll




They are reunited now...
Lyndon Johnson, 26, poses with his new bride, former Lady Bird Taylor, in front of the capitol in Washington in this 1934 family photo from the Johnson Library. Lady Bird Johnson, the former first lady who championed conservation and worked tenaciously for the political career of her husband, former President Lyndon B. Johnson, died Wednesday, July 11, 2007, a family spokeswoman said. She was 94. (AP Photo/Johnson Library)

And the educational lesson here is:
death is NOT the end.
Capisce, A.P.?



A Diva Is Dead -
Beverly Sills "is no more"...
Our Loss; Heaven's Choirs' Gain!



In this undated graphic released by Marvel Entertainment, Inc.,, six of his fellow Superheroes carry the casket bearing the remains of Marvel comic book character Captain America. After 66 years of battling villains from Adolph Hitler to the Red Skull, Captain America will be laid to rest in the in the latest issue of Marvel Comics, which will hit the newstands on July 5, 2007. (AP Photo/Marvel Entertainment, Inc.)

Marvel buried Captain America - just in time for the 4th of July too!
No more feeling superior to 90% of the All-Star Squadron, All-Winners Squad, original JSA, Liberty Legion, original Global Guardians, Invaders, Crusaders, original Seven Soldiers of Victory, Freedom Fighters and the like - now, you too have bitten the dust, Cappo!
Suffice it to say, no one is eternal - NO ONE.
Not even fictional fluffy ones.

Cappo joins a long list now of recent casualties in the four-color world of superheroic schtick - a list that includes most of the "New Warriors" stand-ins, most of the "Alpha Flight" team, most of Uncle Sam's original team of "Freedom Fighters" indeed, the original Charlton heroes known as The Question and Blue Beetle, an ever-growing list of casualties of DC heroes that is nearing the 200 mark now - apparently including the one true Aquaman, King of the Seven Seas.





Speaking of Cappo - we can also talk about the TV demise of Farfour then...
As surely as some conspiracy theorists will claim that DC's Deadshot did Cappo in; there will be those who will claim that WDW's Mickey is behind the unceremonious killing off of Farfour...


Back to true demises now: among the luminaries who have, seemingly (to the naked eye only, really) been extinguished, there is Opera diva Beverly Sills (pictured above,) the Brooklyn-born star of opera, who was gravely ill and finally succumbed to cancer just BEFORE the 4th of July, at the age of 78.

A bit of synchronicity for me there, as I couldn't help but notice that her daughter Meredith has the nickname of "Muffy" - the same as one of the three daughters of one Jim "The Anvil" Neidhart, whose whereabouts these days were of no interest to anyone until so very recently, since the latest tragedy that impacts the Hart clan (as it also impacts upon the Horsemen clan as well, unfortunately...)
I wonder what were the odds of hearing about two grown women being embarrassed in the exact same way, both times due to one or several deaths in their entourage/family - on the same week even...?

But I am digressing...



Actor Charles Lane attended a special tribute to him, which included a live interview and screening of the 1962 film 'The Music Man', at the Aero Theatre in Santa Monica, California, back in October the 23rd, 2005. Lane, the prolific character actor whose lean, bespectacled face was far better known to moviegoers than his name, died Monday July 10th, 2007, in Los Angeles at the venerable age of 102.

Charles Lane and Melvin B. Lane both died this month - I am not sure if they were related. Likely not.

Jessie Davis and Chloe Davis sure are.
If you see their names below, amongst the labels for this post, and do not recognize them, you will be able to read the horrific tale of their end right away - in the comments section. Jessie was a 26-year-old. And Chloe was an unborn child.
And they were both murdered by the one person who supposedly loved them more than anything else in the world.

May they rest in peace - as their presumed assassin is punished for this unscrupulous despicable act.

camera while Kibi Laretai, Bergman's wife and Daniel's mother, watches [AFP]


Ingmar Bergman is no more (or, really, no longer "with us") -
he died at 89.


And he was not the only great film director to leave us this month either - Michelangelo Antonioni also died on the very last day of this torrid month of July, at the age of 94.
