Actor Julian Sands has been missing since January 13th. Sands, a British actor who's been in several hit movies and TV shows (Oxford Blues, A Room With A View, The Killing Fields, and 24), went hiking in the San Gabriel mountains northeast of Los Angeles on the 13th and hasn't been heard from since. His car's been located and his phone pinged on the 15th, but that's it. Search & rescue hasn't found any sign of him and have been hampered by storms in the area. There's reportedly been some signs of an avalanche in the area also. Officials are still calling it a search & rescue mission, but it's not looking good.

Can't find the Andre one, but here are some others. Undertaker, Ric Flair, Cody Rhodes (Or maybe Rami Malek?), and of course Nic Cage respectively:

I'm gonna go out on a limb and guess that David & Roger won't be exchanging Christmas cards later this year and there probably won't be a reunion concert. I bet Waters and Gilmour's wife aren't friends on Facebook anymore, either. Apparently time has not taken the edge off of this feud. Gilmour's wife was pretty blunt and harsh about Waters, but she's not wrong. He's a wretched, bitter, pompous, asshole of a human being who could probably count all his friends on one hand and have enough fingers left over to make a shadow bunny.

The decades-long feud between Roger Waters and David Gilmour, the iconic rock band’s dueling leaders, took a deeply personal turn on Monday morning when the latter’s wife, acclaimed novelist Polly Samson, took a very public swing at Waters.

“Sadly @rogerwaters you are antisemitic to your rotten core. Also a Putin apologist and a lying, thieving, hypocritical, tax-avoiding, lip-synching, misogynistic, sick-with-envy, megalomaniac,” tweeted Samson, who became one of the band’s primary lyricists following Waters’ departure in the 1980s. “Enough of your nonsense.”

Gilmour liked the tweet, as users on the platform quickly noted.

Not sure why, but I was never a big fan of Pink Floyd.

Probably didn't do enough drugs.

Yeah they have some songs that are clearly intended to listen to while high as a kite. They have a few songs I really like, Comfortably Numb, Time,… but after those few I’m not a big fan… and yes, I was never a drug culture guy despite my IE persona

I like Dark Side and The Wall, and am OK with some of their other stuff, but I'm not a huge fan overall... not like I am with Zeppelin, the Beatles, Jeff Beck, etc. Very inventive and complex, but too much of their stuff comes across as stoned belly button contemplation and weird or complex just for the sake of being weird and complex, not because it's what sounds good.

 

[ACamp1900]

I’m okayish on the Beatles,… I recognize their impact obviously and I know they have done some great songs but I’m really not a Lennon fan on many levels and they have some stuff that really turns me off. Of all the GREAT rock bands they’re prob my least favorite

 

[ulukinatme]

I like a few songs, but same boat. I typically side more on the Aerosmith, ACDC, Led Zeppelin side of Classic Rock.

 

[ACamp1900]

Clapton
Zep
Black Crowes
Eagles
Fleetwood Mac
CCR

That’s my main rock core

All prog rock all the time. steven wilson or gtfo

Trip acid, put on Dark side while you are peaking, watch your soul traverse the shared consciousness of eternal existence as it skates along the edge of the unknown and maybe you might understand why I’m a fan. Lol

I’d got for the true experience and get one that is haunted and has a chamber pot.

I hope they upgraded to indoor plumbing and electricity.

Well, that explains a lot! Lol

Allowing in-class time to work on a group projects,… gave the students a choice of music in the background,… really laid back day today. Anyway, the students chose to listen to Chris Stapleton (obviously fresh on their minds), Don McLean and Eagles,….. I was legit shocked. There may be hope for the future y’all

That's gotta be fake, right? That's hilarious either way. I wonder how many accountants will be talking to their drug dealing clients about this?

Why do all the Pittsburgh teams (Even my Pens), SCum and others insist they wear Gold when it's clearly yellow?? Y'all wear yellow,... just own it!

I think it's real, and it's how they took down people like Al Capone. They were arrested and convicted of tax evasion because they couldn't pin anything else on them.

100% true, spoke to a colleague in Buffalo today and let him have it about how dumb it is. Wondering when I get a letter asking to pay for undocumented speeding tickets.
