Ok, why wasn't director John Hughes mentioned last year when the Oscars did their little "in memorium" segment? No Farrah either? Granted, the latter is easier to explain (although she DID do movies too) but no John Hughes? He spoke to my younger angst! Unfair!

Maybe we can have a "Ferris; Planes, Trains, Autos; Breakfast Club; Home Alone; Great Outdoors; Vacation, etc" - fest in his honor. Died in 2009.

Boohoohooo....the Sony Walkman is going out of production.
I, too, will never forget how many times I had to use a pen to rewind a cassette tape thanks to that infernal device. www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-11618899

I saw that today. Death really does come in threes. Waiting for the last one to drop. TV speaking, we have one of America's Moms, and now one of America's Dad's will the next be one of America's son's follow, or daughter?

Despite her most popular role (which I loved), she will also be forever known as "the lady that spoke jive" in the first Airplane movie. RIP to a great woman.

Barbara Billingsley, the television mother who millions of Americans grew up watching, has died at age 94.
Billingsley who gained supermom status for her portrayal of June Cleaver, the supportive mother of a pair of precocious boys in Leave it to Beaver, was at her home in Santa Monica, California , Saturday when she passed away, said family spokesman, Judy Twersky.
When the popular show debuted in 1957, Jerry Mathers, who played Beaver, was 9, and Tony Dow, who portrayed Wally, was 12.
