This is so sad. You just never know :frowning:

Luke Perry has died at 52. He suffered a stroke and was rushed to the hospital, but it was too massive. I think it always impacts more when it happens to folks around my age. Along with every other girl I knew, loved him in Beverly HIlls 90210. RIP Luke :heart:

I don’t think I know him. RIP non the less. It’s so hard when icons of our youth seem to be passing rather quickly :frowning:

If you’re, ahem, of a certain age, you might remember two of his bands: The Beat (aka The English Beat) and General Public.

#95

Still don’t know them. I looked them up and they were Brit Bands. I didn’t know many of them until I got older. Somehow I never heard of these groups. I do see that some of the same members were part of Dexy’s Midnight Runners. Them I know :smiley: :wink: I love them and their greatest hit :smiley:

This is horrible!!!

They are saying the interior is completely involved. “Everything is burning.”

#97

I saw that several minutes ago. This makes me feel absolutely horrible. Notre Dame Cathedral is one of the great masterpieces of Western culture. At least the stone can’t burn. I hope no matter what it takes, whatever is left should be rebuilt and restored. The destruction of the irreplaceable stained glass alone is terrible.

#98

Yeah, that’s an incredible shame.

#99

It’s going to be an unimaginable loss :frowning:

I just posted in off topic about it before I saw this.
