Two by Two

David Carradine and Koko Taylor have died. I loved her music, she had a joie de vie that was out of this world. Carradine was a controversial choice for Kung Fu (gee, an anglo playing a Chinese man, who would complain about that in the 70's?), and he was great in Kill Bill.

Koko died coming out of surgery. Carradine was hanging. (I use the imperfect for him because again, there is controversy.)

I remember when he died I hoped he did not die like Michael Hutchence, the lead singer for INXS who was playing a game of coupe de corde when he died. When I heard she died after surgery I hoped it wasn't weight reduction.

God bless you both.
