CNN.com – Ray Charles dies at 73 – Jun 10, 2004
Yikes! Another major icon dies. Another one who’s name started with “R”…
If these things come in threes, Rodney Dangerfield, Reggie Jackson, and Ricardo Montalban better take their vitamins this week.
Better warn Rip Torn, Randy Newman and the Rockettes, Too.
And how about (and their cause of death):
Robert (Bob) Dole (old age)
Ross H. Perot (old age & paranoia)
Russell Crowe (bar fight)
Robert DeNiro (wacked)
Reverend Jesse L. Jackson (any of the above)
*makes the sign of the cross, the warding of the evil and dances like a lunatic* No more!
Hmmm…Rosalind Russell…nope already dead…Roy (from Siegfried AND)..nope, already cheated death once this year….mmmm, Roger Moore….maybe, maybe…Ray Romano…boy, don’t I wish….
I’ll get back to you..
I thought Rodney already past away?
Nope. Sheesh. The poor guy never gets any respect! ;p
And WAIT! I remembered, Tony Randall just died. There’s our third R. Just not first-named.
Jazz bassist Red Kelly died yesterday too: 🙁
