    Imagine a Presidency where if you go half a weekend without committing an impeachable offense, everyone automatically assumes you're dead.

    THE OBITUARY
    Every morning a guy would stalk out of his building, cross the street to the news kiosk, grab a paper, look at the front page, and "GODDAMNIT!", throw it back on the counter and stalk off.
    One day the newspaper man asked him what was wrong.
    "I'm looking for an obituary."
    "Oh, you won't find it on the front page; obituaries are in the C Section, here."
    "NOT THE ONE I'M LOOKING FOR!"

    Mark Randall Volman (April 19, 1947 – September 5, 2025) was an American vocalist, guitarist, and songwriter. He was known as a founding member of the 1960s rock band the Turtles, and, along with Howard Kaylan, a member of the 1970s rock duo Flo & Eddie, where he used the pseudonym Flo (short for The Phlorescent Leech). Volman also became a stand-out figure upon joining Frank Zappa's band, The Mothers of Invention.

    I could never remenber whether he was Smith or Jones. Good actor though, and apparently a nice person as well.

    Marilyn Joan Long (née Watts; January 3, 1930 – February 9, 2025), known professionally as Mara Corday, was an American actress, showgirl, model and Playboy Playmate who was a 1950s cult figure during the Golden Age of Hollywood. She came to Hollywood while still in her teens and found work as a showgirl at the Earl Carroll Theatre on Sunset Boulevard.[3] Her physical beauty brought jobs as a photographer's model that led to a bit part as a showgirl in the 1951 film Two Tickets to Broadway. She played the part of Loretta the waitress that poured too much sugar in Harry Callahan's coffee in the "Sudden Impact" (1983) with Clint Eastwood.
