Bernie Worrell: :( Passed today.

I just received this message regarding Bernie.

sad

Bernie Worrell

I was just told that Bernie is now headed "Home". If you are in the WA area and want to visit him to say your goodbyes, PM me. PLEASE do not call me. Bernie can no longer talk on phone nor can he text.

Beloved keyboardist Bernie Worrell’s condition continues to deteriorate according to his wife Judie, who shared an update about his status on Bernie’s official Facebook page.

Friends of Worrell, who is battling stage four lung cancer, have been urged to say their goodbyes to the keyboardist as he heads “home” after his condition has taken a turn for the worse.


A note from Judie reads, “I was just told that Bernie is now headed “Home”. If you are in the WA area and want to visit him to say your goodbyes, PM me. PLEASE do not call me. Bernie can no longer talk on phone nor can he text.”

Actually, no, it doesn't: Trump's Campaign is Such ...e Bleeding

Plus, there's this: a reported conversation between Trump and then-adviser Roger Stone (who left the campaign) around the time of the Megyn Kelly flap.


Stone: “Donald, stop with the Megyn Kelly shit. It’s fucking crazy. It’s killing us.”
Trump: “What do you mean? I won the debate. People loved it.”
Stone: “You didn’t win the debate.”
Trump: “Yes I did. Look at the polling. Look at Drudge.”
Stone: “The Drudge Report poll isn’t a scientific poll. You won’t give me the money to pay for a scientific poll. And you’re off-message.”
Trump: “There are other polls.”
Stone: “Those are bullshit polls, Donald. They’re not scientific polls. We need to run a professional campaign and talk about what people really care about.”
Trump: “We’re winning.”

Aside from the deaths of all of the artists over the year, this is great news.

Should someone start a new thread? Or can the OP change the title, so at least it's clearer that he has died to anyone who sees it?
