This is really sad.

Gene Wilder always reminded me of the opening line of the Rafael Sabatini novel Scaramoush: “He was born with a gift for laughter and a sense that the world was mad.” No one captured that madness better than he.

RIP.

Legendary blues guitarist B.B. King died late Thursday in Las Vegas. He was 89.

Hailed as the “King of the Blues,” King was born Riley B. King on September 16, 1925 on a Mississippi cotton plantation. Introduced to music through gospel, King ascended through the ranks as one of the greatest blues artists of all time. The 15-time Grammy winner seemingly never retired, continuing to perform for over seven decades. King had been suffering from diabetes and was recently in hospice care.

RIP.
