Perhaps we could get one to die from body modification or VD?

Sometimes, VD does its own body modifications.

Kim Fowley was nuts. And yes, whether people like it or not, The Runaways changed things.

The next Death thread should be subtitled "Reports of Dead People and the Old People rambling about random tangents afterwards"

They did. Big Runaways fan here. Notsomuch a Joan Jett fan anymore, though, after the Runaways doc/movie bullsh* she pulled.

Joan Jett, Lita Ford, and Micki Steele (bassist for the Bangles, after the Runaways went bye-bye). That's quite a group to start with.

Re: He's dead, Jim.

That's a big one there.

There's a lot of big names around MLB that are either pushing 80, or well into their 80's that we're going to lose pretty soon. Al Kaline is 79, Hank Aaron, Willie Mays and Whitey Ford are in their 80's, and Yogi is going to be 90 this year. Bobby Doerr is 95 now, and he's the last living ball player who played in MLB in the 30's.
