Steve Wright

He died yesterday. A great shock. He entertained us for decades on British radio. RIP.
I used to listen to his afternoon show in the 80s. Always a ton of fun with the afternoon boys, Gervais and all his other funny characters.

Get the geese off! :D

RIP Steve...
 
Most of the world will little note nor long remember William Post, the guy who invented these.

The EU won’t anyway, they're banned there. And full disclosure, I lost my taste for the things most of a lifetime ago. But by all accounts Bill Post was a mensch, an all around nice guy. He’s passed on at 96.

I can honestly say that I never ate one, and strangely enough I'm sort of proud of that. I've always been a bit skeptical of uneccessary food items that are invented, then advertised as the greatest thing sliced bread. :buenrollo:

I don't even eat sliced bread. :rolleyes:

Apart from that, I only eat bread from the artisan bakery or my homemade bread made with sourdough. However, sometimes I don't feel like baking. I don't like sliced industrial bread.
 
We seemed to have missed the passing of former NASA astronaut Frank Borman (1928-2023) on November 7th last year.
Selected in the 2nd astronaut group he flew with Jim Lovell in Gemini 7 in November 1965. The mission lasted 14 days and was intended to investigate problems related to such long duration flights. On day eleven, they had a orbital rendez-vous with the later launched Gemini 6 (Schirra and Stafford).
Borman remains the best known as commander of Apollo 8 in December 1968, the first manned mission to orbit the moon, again with Lovell and with Bill Anders. Before Borman's death, Apollo 8 was the last mission of the Apollo program of which all astronauts were still alive.
