I was never a fan of King Crimson or ELP, but I love this solo song of his, and it's just right for the season:

I was all about EL&P back in the late 70s. From the Beginning, oh yeah.

RIP Greg Lake - I was a huge fan of both King Crimson (at least the early stuff with Lake) and ELP.

RIP John Glenn - I still remember sitting in grade school and having the teacher stop class and bring in a radio so we could listen to the details as he orbited the earth for the first time ever. The astronauts were really a big deal back in the day. I even remember astronaut trading cards. Now I am in the mood to watch The Right Stuff.

Was a big fan of ELP in my youth. First band I ever saw in concert. So weird to have 2/3rds of them gone in the same year .

AA Gill - restaurant critic

Probably only well known inside the UK. I has hit me harder than a lot of the others, I think because by reading his column regularly for many years I got the sense that I knew him personally (which I guess is a credit to to his writing).

They had tried to fob him off as the new Canadian Johnny Carson before that, Thicke of the Night, fiasco. He was perfect for a sitcom dad. Also he seemed to have a sense of humor about himself irl later on.

Fitting somehow, him being Canadian and all. Evidently he was 69. Cold weather is brutal on the heart and blood vessels. It makes a big difference in my blood pressure which I have to monitor closely these days.

That's the way a Canadian legend should go. Last words were probably "I'm good. I'll skate it off".

Sportscaster Craig Sager has died after a long battle with cancer that he shared with the public. Famous for his colorful wardrobe and his work on TNT's NBA games. He seemed like a really good guy, always very enthusiastic, had an ongoing thing with Spurs coach Gregg Popovich where Pop was mean to him and wouldn't answer his questions.

Sagar (unlike 99% of in-game reporters) was bearable because he asked good questions.
Pop does that with all the reporters. Sagar was good enough that Pop actually respected him.

And for a career bookend, he was one of the guys who ran onto the field when Hank Aaron hit 714. You can see him in the pictures, clear as day, trying to get a quote.

Joseph Heller, novelist, died December 12 (1999). I noticed that no one made the annual posting for the namesake of this thread.

I watch literally every Spurs game, Nut. I have a pretty good idea of how Pop operates!

Henry Heimlich, M.D., creator of the "Heimlich Maneuver" for choking victims, dead on Saturday, December 17, 2016. I went to law school with one of Dr. Heimlich's sons and ate lunch with the two of them on occasion. Dr. Heimlich was a very entertaining person, somewhat controversial, and he had unique ideas and approaches to medical problems, the sort of things that don't go over with some in the medical community, but result in things like the "Heimlich Maneuver". He was pleasant lunch company.

Dr. Heimlich only ever got one chance to use his signature move:

Dr. Heimlich Uses His Maneuver At Retirement Home, Saves 87-Year-Old Woman

Quote:
Resident Patty Ris, 87, had swallowed a piece of meat and was struggling to breathe. Perry Gaines, an employee of the Deupree House — who had in fact performed the Heimlich maneuver before — ran toward her table. But Heimlich was already in position.

"Typically, a staff member would do it," the Enquirer reports. " 'But,' Gaines said, pausing, 'it is Dr. Heimlich.' "
