Of all the races of the universe the Squats have the longest memories and the shortest tempers. They are uncouth, unpredictably violent, and frequently drunk. Overall, I'm glad they're on our side!

To the greatest drummer rest in peace. You have brought great joy to my family and many of my friends. Your talent and musicianship inspired myself and my family. My son became the drummer he is today because of you. Thank you for all the music and lyrics you have left us.

First reported by Tolkien Society. Full remembrance coming soon.

"You listen to me. While I will admit to a certain cynicism, the fact is that I am a naysayer and hatchetman in the fight against violence. I pride myself in taking a punch and I'll gladly take another because I choose to live my life in the company of Gandhi and King. My concerns are global. I reject absolutely revenge, aggression, and retaliation. The foundation of such a method... is love. I love you Sheriff Truman." - Twin Peaks
To lose Stan to suicide is heavy news. He was one of the many highlights of the Highlander series and made it fashionable to walk into a GW establishment in an American TV show.
Terry Jones was a magnificent comedic talent. A legend for sure.
Christoper Tolkien went to great lengths to ensure his father's legacy was upheld and for generations yet to come.
May we also spare a thought for Basil Brush as Derek Fowlds was indeed a great co star.
Rest in peace Gentlemen for you shall not be forgotten.

Reality is a nice place to visit, but I'd hate to live there.
