John Ritter is certainly a shocker, I'm curious what they will do with his show.
Johnny Cash was great though, I just recently had gotten into his remake songs, and wished he had performed at the MTV awards, as well as won some more things then he did.

Wow. The Star sure picked a crappy picture of Cash. I bet the tabloids have fun with these two tragedies this week.

That's weird. I mean it's awful, but it's also weird (to me.) Because, you see, I was unpacking my CDs and just decided on a whim that I really needed to listen to "Unchained" on Monday. I mean, I hadn't really listened to it since a month after it came out. Anyway his passing is tragic and in a way that's sort of fitting.
(I'll try to be more careful about which aging musician's records I dig up in the future.)
Uh, I have nothing really to say about John Ritter except that I watched too much "Three's Company" back in the day and I thought he was really good in "Sling Blade."

I just saw Cash's "Hurt" video (and heard the song) for the first time, the night before he died.
Freaky.
