I suggest everyone take a minute or two to listen to this:

 

I don't know how to embed a video on here, for some reason. You'd think I'd have learned to do it by now after almost 7 years.

RIP Mike Wallace.

 

I was surprised to read Mike Wallace was 93.

Blair Kiel, ND QB from 1980-83 and uncle of current ND QB Gunner Kiel, died at age 50.

 

He wasn't anywhere near the best ND QB, but he was the first one I remember.

Despite his presence the past few years, his New Years Eve show was what I stayed up for as a kid. Bandstand was way before my time. RIP

Dick Clark

 

Great, that just means more Ryan Seacrest

The ageless one will now be the immortal one. RIP Mr. Clark.

Sounds like one of music's greatest voices is on his way out. Sad day.

Bummer

One of my all time favorite singers from one of my all time favorite bands. I'll admit I teared up a bit when hearing this news the other night. Theres not another singer out there that sounds like Levon Helm. Truly one of a kind. His last couple solo albums (which both won Grammys) are just amazing and I highly recommend giving them a listen if you haven't.

Yep, we lost a one-of-a-kind spirit in Levon? RIP.

Sad indeed. Levon was an incredibly talented guy.

And he shall be Levon

And he shall be a good man

And he shall be Levon

And he shall be a good man

I was going to ask if he had a son named Jesus, but I thought that the joke would be too soon.

I didn't mean it as a joke or anything.

Dick Clark is dead and we can't ring in the New Year!?

 

Well played Mayans, well played.
