"Praise and worship" is not in me. A DNA circuit malfunction.

David Ogden Stiers, known for his role as Major Charles Emerson Winchester III in the TV comedy series "M*A*S*H," died Saturday, the agency representing him said.

The actor was 75.
He died "peacefully at his home in Newport, Oregon after a courageous battle with bladder cancer," the MKS Talent Agency tweeted.
"His talent was only surpassed by his heart," the agency added.

Propelled by an ever-lengthening stride and extraordinary willpower, the lanky British medical student Roger Bannister became the first person to run a mile in less than four minutes. He pitched over the finish line at the University of Oxfords Iffley Road track on a dank, blustery day May 6, 1954 and electrified England during its post-World War II doldrums.

Dr. Bannister, who died March 3 at age 88, became a national hero at a time when mavericks around the world were overcoming the long-perceived physical boundaries of man and nature.

The American pilot Chuck Yeager broke the sound barrier in 1947, and the New Zealand mountaineer Edmund Hillary and his sherpa Tenzing Norgay conquered Mount Everest in 1953. Then came Dr. Bannister, with his astonishing 3-minute, 59.4-second run.

His milestone resonated with millions of people for its seeming simplicity: four laps, four minutes, the universal endeavor of running made into a sublime feat.

My Mom (Mother Krink) passed away Sunday March 4th in a Bellingham hospital.
She fell and really broke her leg late Tuesday night and had to be rushed by ambulance
to the hospital and surgery was Wednesday and it was a complicated fixing job to her
artificial hip. Best case scenario no weight on leg for 3-months and in a nursing home.
She was 88yrs old and a Scorpio and went shopping for groceries every week needing
a cane or walker and still driving a car. She was fine last everybody talked to her early
in the week. But that's how it works sometimes when one moment you are OK and a
minute later you are not OK. The surgery took a lot out of her and with the Sun conjunct Neptune
was the "call it quits" aspect. My mom will instantly like not having to operate in a 88yr old
human body so badly worn out. Our souls likely to meet up again.

Snippy sends his condolences. I knew it was unusual not to hear from you last night.

It's tough losing your Mom. Your next few days are going to be complicated. I'll be thinking of you and hoping that you are able to find solace.

Yep, what Snippy said. My mom passed in July 1980, but she made a huge impression on me. And left a big hole in my soul. I think about her every day. And every day I wanna call her to hear her voice. Although my phone won't reach her.

I would never wish a nursing home on anybody, much less anybodies Mom.

Those tear jerker commercials showing cats and dogs being mistreated is what i think of when someone says nursing home.

It takes real courage to get old and have some kind of life. You can bet shes dancing around like a young person now....

My mother left us last summer, she didn't know us and hadn't for a good while. She was in a memory care facility, there really wasn't any other way for us to do it. Her not knowing us and watching her decline made it much easier on us because we all felt like we'd lost her well before that. Still, I get what you're saying, Clavalin.

Sorry to hear of your loss Krink. No matter how long ones life is,the passing is never easy.
St. Joes in Bellingham is certainly a state of the art Hospital nowadays. And have provided great health care to me and my family since before Chink was born.
Wish you many good memories..
