Tanya Roberts, Charlie's Angel, Bond girl, Sheena, The Beastmaster, and That 70's Show mom. Passed away from unknown causes at age 65. Collapsed while walking her dogs on Christmas eve. She had the most beautiful blue eyes I've ever seen. She appeared as both a brunette and a blonde but I thought she looked best as a brunette. RIP.

One of the most influential casino owners in the world (probably along with Stanley Ho as #2). Adelson's Sands casinos not only bought up a sizeable portion of the strip in LAS at one time, they also single handedly escalated the casino scene in Singapore with the MBS and properties throughout Macao and HKG.

They have a substantial private aviation fleet here in the states as well as Asia, incorporating everything from Hawkers and Gulfstreams to Boeing widebodies and an L1011. I've sold them aircraft parts and I've had to help sneak one of their whales into Singapore (long story I won't elaborate on).

Peter Mark Richman, 93, perpetual television guest actor who appeared in 130 Hollywood TV and cinematic roles spanning 80 years, including an episode of Star Trek:TNG entitled "The Neutral Zone," where three formerly cryogenically frozen humans from the late 20th century are temporary guest passengers on the Enterprise in the middle of a kerfuffle with the Romulans. Richman played a malignantly narcissistic financier who kept bugging the shit out of Capt. Picard in an attempt to get in contact with defunct banks on Earth, current interspecies crisis be damned. Died of natural causes.

It must have been in the early 2000's, I saw Larry King get off of a Hawker we chartered him, with his newest and youngest blond wife (I think she was about 40 and he was in his 70's). We had arranged the charter for him to come to Arizona and see that his wife had paid Schenpfs farms to carve his mug in a crop field for his Birthday. :)) :))

For someone who was a national figure on TV almost dialy, I don't think he really cared too much for the gift but he wasn't seeing her for her wisdom...

If his coffin is lowered into just the right spot does the cemetery disappear?

Dustin Diamond, AKA "Screech" from "Saved by the Bell" dead of cancer at 44. Like a lot of childhood stars, he had a troubled adulthood. Reality TV, Porn, and a stint in jail for a barroom stabbing. Even with all that, 44 is way too soon to be lost to any kind of cancer.

Some good screechios in the clip but the end tells us how some characters ended up in their follow on roles. {laugh} {laugh} {laugh}
