So I click on one of my favourite "feel good cuz it's about comic books and pop culture" sites.
Dawn Wells, Mary-Ann from Gilligan's Island, she of the lovely coconuts...er...coconut cream pies...
Dead at 82 from Covid-19.
I couldn't bring myself to read the details.
Nothing but good news, starting January 1st. I have spoken with the universe and we both agree that everybody needs a damned break for at least a year.
Enough already.

OK Covid 19. NOW you've gone too far!
{Tina Louise is now the only surviving cast member :( }

Sheesh! Here's another one, though not Covid related: Tanya Roberts dead at 65. All the fantasy babes from my youth are going. On a side note, I may literally be the only person in the entire world that actually liked Sheena Queen of the Jungle.
{damn, for some reason I can't paste the link}.
I saw the sad news about Roberts. I too have fond memories of her from my youth. Sheena was fun (and made my girlfriend jealous) but her all time classic performance was opposite Marc Singer in Beastmaster. Ah, memories.
Oy!
In an absolute Pythonesque twist to this story, apparently the reports of Tanya Roberts demise have been greatly exaggerated. According to The Hollywood Reporter (same source as yesterday's news of her death), she still resides on this side of paradise.
Fake news, indeed.
Turns out that (Charlie's) Angels actually do come back to life...
Sadly, Ms. Roberts really has passed away. It seems there was some sort of horrible information mix up and the original death notice was in error. Apparently she actually died on January 4. Sad news, bizarre news story.
Another fond boyhood crush gone. I am starting to think I might actually be getting old...
Schrodinger's Tonya Roberts?
Schrodinger's Angel.
Works on at least two levels...
