Famous people may be dying but the Rule of Three is alive and well.

Parker, McGarrigle, and Segal all on the same day.

you have to wonder if there was a foreshadowing with a small cough or sneeze and some ominous background music

“One thing kids like is to be tricked. For instance, I was going to take my little nephew to Disneyland, but instead I drove him to an old burned-out warehouse. 'Oh, no!', I said, 'Disneyland burned down.' He cried and cried, but I think that deep down he thought it was a pretty good joke. I started to drive over to the real Disneyland, but it was getting pretty late.”

I've always meant to ask you - are you the same person that was the lead singer in the rock group Splinky and Our Gang?

Possibly the only person to be denied tenure at Yale for writing one too many books. RIP.

Another one I thought was already dead. Back in my teens I adored his novels. I gobbled them up.
