ta ta for now

am the only one who finds it odd that the men who provided the voice for Tigger and voice of Piglet died within a day of each other? it’s weird to see those headlines stacked on each other in the Times Obit section.

Almost all the “Pooh” voice actors are dead now - including Harold Morris, the one who did the voice of Gopher - he just died the 21st of last month.

If I were the guy who did “Christopher Robin” I’d have me one of them full-body scans, pronto.

I burst into tears when I saw the headlines on CNN.com this morning. Completely odd and so very very sad. T-I- Double grrr-er was my most favorite Disney character… and a lot of it had to do with that voice.

I think it’s a conspiracy: The voice of Tony the Tiger died recently too.

Who is killing the cartoon voices of America!?!?

Joe Henry in the LA Times on Music's Literary Side. It's really good until he mentions Alice Munro (barf). [+]

You should go listen to this NPR interview with Liz Phair on the 15th Anniversary of Exile in Guyville. Go listen, now. Seriously. Go. She talks about the whole Exile on Mainstreet/Guyville thing. It's fascinating. [+]
