Yes, it's a shame. I wasn't a great fan of the man himself to be honest, but I understood why it was being done, and I respected the wishes of others. My dad was particularly moved by the minute's silence, as he came over from Ireland to Manchester around the same as Best, and saw him play a couple of times.

[/color] died Saturday.[/quote] My mom called today to tell me this, and we shared a little sad moment. Mr. Berenstain and his wife kept me and my sisters entertained when we were little, and they taught us to be kind without being all preachy about it. If everyone read the Berenstain Bears books while growing up, the world would undoubtedly be a better place.

One of the great things about having kids is having a "real" reason to read Berenstain Bear books again. There is even a cartoon on PBS now!

Wendie Jo Sperber passed away as a result of breast cancer. (Saw a trailer across the bottom of the screen while I was watching TV earlier.)

Yup - she alwasy made me smile - just checking out her movie roles, I was shocked to see a Sunday afternoon favourite movie of mine 'I wanna hold your hand' was made in 1978! She was a crack up in that.

Tom Hanks released an eloquent statement about her passing:
It's such a nice thing to say that I am going to tell myself--sincerely hoping it is true--that they kept in touch through the years. I shall supress my inner cynic.

Oh that's sad...he was a very funny man who lived a very tortured life. I'm sorry to hear this news.
