Dang! I'll have to find a new tailor now.....................NOT. The Armani name is synonymous with some fine threads at a price.
Graham Greene (Dances With Wolves actor) passed away aged 73.
I meant to post this yesterday but got caught up in things.
Bobby Hart passed away yesterday. He and his early partner Tommy Boyce wrote a lot of the Monkees early hit songs.
RIP Bobby Hary

One of Redford’s memorable movies, at last to me, was Situation Hopess - But Not Serious. A strange film with Alec Guinness and Mike Connors. Not highly rated on IMDB but I rather liked it.
I don't generally react to deaths of celebrities, but Robert Redford drew an "oh!" from me. He was a very accomplished man.
I find it astonishing that while he got an Oscar for directing Ordinary People, he never received one for his acting. He was often accused of playing only versions of himself, but he had a way of using his silences as effectively as his dialog. (A shining example of that is All Is Lost, where his dialog was practically non-existent.) I can't think of any movie where his roles could have been better played by anybody else.
And his founding of the Sundance film festival and his environmental and political activism display his character even more than the roles he played.

She was one of those people who went their own way, saw what others couldn't, and made us all reflect on where we fit in to the world of the great apes. She'll be missed.
Wow, did she have a good run for her money. She was on a speaking tour in California when she died.
That leaves Birutė Galdikas as the last survivor of the three primate scientists hired by Louis Leakey. She never attained the same level of popular acclaim (and in Dian Fossey's case, notoriety) of the other two women, though her contributions to the field have been just as impressive.

Alas. Another MB falls.
My husband played in a backup orchestra for The Moody Blues fifteen or twenty years ago. It was one of the highlights of his orchestral career.
