Good Golly...

Post by RayThom »

Little Richard has died.

Truth be told, I thought he had passed on a few years ago.

Me too, but still sad.

Read today that Roy Horn, half of the Siegfried and Roy animal act/magic combo, has also died at the age of 75.  His demise is attributed to that particular strain of "flu" that Trump says is making the rounds.

Yes, I suppose I could agree with you ... but then we'd both be wrong, wouldn't we?

If Roy had it, there's a good chance Sigfried has it.

Does no one care about the tiger?

Roy did.  Even as auxiliary handlers and trainers were getting him away from the tiger (named 'Manticore', by the way) and medical personnel was transporting him to the hospital, he was stating that it wasn't the tiger's fault and giving orders that the tiger should not be destroyed.  Mantacore was allowed to live and spent the rest of its days at the Siegfried and Roy compound outside Las Vegas until 2014, when the 17-year-old tiger died after a brief illness.

Darren was right! Covid-19 was around long before January!
