He hasn’t been relevant for longer than his beloved Notre Dame.


Also, I think Regis helped normalize Trump back years ago, Regis and Kelly or Kathy or someone would talk about him a lot: "The Donald" this and that, and yada yada. Anyway RIP.

You may know him from just about every 70s TV sci-fi movie.

She survived both major pandemics (and a bunch of smaller ones too!)
Denice Johnson

May not be a household name but her voice has appeared on several classic tracks, Primal Scream (Loaded and Don’t Fight It, Feel It), a certain ratio, Pet Shop Boys, Electronic,  New Order etc

whoa listening to "Don’t Fight It, Feel It" on it's own instead of as part of the album sequence, Denice Roberts is the only vocalist on this track and she rules….

Denice Johnson


Yeah..major vocalist at least to me..super talented


What a shame
A much better obit for Denice Johnson and because Getty Images has picture of other singers tagged as her, UK publications have the been publishing incorrect images of her.

so will Faux News conveniently forget to say he attended the Tulsa Rally without a mask?  it's a good thing he probably signed that waiver saying he wouldn't sue…
I wonder why he attended Tulsa Trump rally without mask given on June 11 Cain posted on his own website to wear a mask and take it seriously!?!? Probably peer pressure….May have cost him his life

They say he travelled a lot prior to catching it but he may have been wearing a mask if he heeded his own advice… I think that’s likely

I always feel like someone else is loging into Kosmo's account when he post political stuff
This may be the one moment in history that is best for me to tell these merging stories…

I was once on a lunchtime run near my office building and I saw Herman Cain getting out of a car.

Another time, also near my office, I saw John Lewis coming out of a building.

I suppose I could embellish these stories, but that's all i have that's for real.
