2020, To the last I grapple with thee. From hell’s heart I stab at thee. For hate’s sake, I spit my last breath at thee.

This is a classic. The Honey Bees! I love the introduction by Mr. Howell, as good as Jack Parr or Johnny Carson.

“2020 started out with Neil Peart dead. Now ends with Mary Ann passing away. Of course it would.”

This year just sucks.

Meant Ed Sullivan not Jack Parr. He did it perfectly.

RIP Dawn thanks for all the beauty and laughs.

Saw on the interweb something like:

You thought 2020 was bad.
Just wait for 2021 when it can legally buy booze!

RIP.

Guessing she was the last of the Minnow wreck.

[bgill]

That was uncalled for.

Dawn Wells passes on but Hillary Clinton
and Nancy Pelosi still keep plaguing the country.

[gundog]

And Jane Fonda lives on....
