Snowman is "East bound and down".... Jerry Reed dies at age 71

"Awww hell, I got to go!" 

[MetalJedi]

That sucks. I enjoyed him in the Smokey and the Bandit movies.

Richard Wright passed away. Wish they would have done that Pink Floyd reunion.

Richard Wright

[DSJ™]

Oh man, this is indeed sad.   

Richard has gone to The Great Gig In The Sky. 

[Reid]

Holy ****, much like Syd, I didn't see this one coming. I guess this squashes any talk of a Floyd reunion.

Sad to see one of the greatest keyboard players for one of the greatest bands go.

RIP Richard 

[Matt_Fury]

Shame.  Pink Floys is (was) such an awesome band.  One of my absolute favorites.

[Chris]

Indeed sad. Floyd is pretty much my favorite band or one of the absolute top.

Hollywood Legend Paul Newman has passed away at age 83 after battling cancer.

[DSJ™]

Very sad. 

Cool Hand Luke, Butch Cassidy & the Sundance Kid, The Sting & Slap Shot are my fav's.

[Scott]

For sure one of my favorite actors of all time.  He lived a long, full life so here's to you Paul, I think I'll eat a hard boiled egg for lunch

[P-Siddy]

I saw Paul quite a few times (on a yearly basis) during my life at Elkhart Lake while attending the races there. He owned a team and was quite a class act. He will be missed and the world needs more guys like him.

Butch Cassidy is one of my earliest movie memories. Getting to stay up late watching it with my dad is still a great memory for me.

[Jesse James]

Slapshot, filmed just a little bit from me over in Johnstown...  A classic forever and must-watch for any hockey fan.  I usually don't care about famous people dying but this one bummed me a little bit.

RIP Paul, and thanks for the Balsamic Vinaigrette Dressing.
