On Friday we learned of the passing of entertainment great, Larry Gelbart. He wrote and produced several works, but what I remember him mostly for is his work on M*A*S*H. It’s one of my all-time favorite shows and it’s great that I can still catch reruns on cable t.v. How can I forget him when his name is so prominently displayed on the show’s opening title sequence.
Saturday was Neil Peart’s 57th birthday. For those that don’t know, he’s the drummer for the rock band Rush. My earliest recollection of the band is hearing, and seeing, the songs from 1981’s Moving Pictures on a little channel called MTV. Peart has been playing with the band since 1976 and they’re still going strong. His hands might not be as fast as before, but his drumming videos truly showcase his evolved skills.
And yesterday we had nothing but football, yet, we got word of Serena Williams’ little tantrum at the U.S. Open in N.Y. Even tennis is not immune from jerk athletes. But hey, the Cowboys won and that’s all that matters.
