Good god, this has been a lousy day....



He was a talented singer who created two timeless songs of very different styles – the smash hits “Everlasting Love” and “She’s a Bad Mama Jama (She’s Built, She’s Stacked).” Tonight we are sad to report the passing of the great Carl Carlton at the age of 72. Carlton’s death comes six years after he suffered a serious stroke, after which friends and family members said he courageously battled to both live and thrive.
 
 

I remember this guy.

A bit of a loose canon as I recall.
But fun.

Peter Arnett was already an accomplished combat correspondent in 1966 when he embedded with an American infantry battalion tasked with routing out enemy snipers from a tunnel system near Saigon. Mr. Arnett was standing next to the unit commander when bullets tore through the map the officer was holding, hitting the colonel in the chest.

Medics ran up to bandage Lt. Col. George Eyster, a West Pointer who died the next day at a field hospital. Mr. Arnett wrote his obituary, which was among the scores of stories he filed from the humid jungle battlefields of Vietnam for more than a decade. He won the Pulitzer Prize for international reporting that year.



Mr. Arnett died Wednesday at 91, in Newport Beach, California. The cause was prostate cancer, said his daughter, Elsa Arnett.
