Stay Tuned for Death Death Death

Over the past few weeks there have been quite a few significant deaths that require my extensive scrutiny.

Dec 25 - James Brown
Dec 26 - Gerald Ford
Dec 30 - Saddam Hussein, yimach shemo
Jan 2 - Teddy Kollek.

Four kings: a godfather, a president, a tyrant, and a mayor. The Godfather of Soul and the King of Funk, The 38th President of the US, the tyrant of Iraq and the Butcher of Bahgdad, and Mayor of the greatest city the world has ever known.
