Terry Jones was absolutely a great comedian, but he was more than that - he was also a competent historian with European medieval history as his speciality. He wrote and narrated a splendid TV series on the Crusades in the 11th to 13th century; I learned so much from him on this topic.
He will be missed - I will miss him. :heart:

Jim Lehrer
1934 - 2020
PBS NewsHour co-founder Jim Lehrer, a giant in journalism known for his tenacity and dedication to simply delivering the news, died peacefully in his sleep at home on Thursday, at the age of 85.
For 36 years, Jim began the nightly newscast with a simple phrase: “Good Evening, I’m Jim Lehrer.” As an anchor of several iterations of the NewsHour, Jim reported the news with a clear sense of purpose and integrity– even as the world of media changed around him.
Jim and his journalism partner Robert MacNeil’s approach to reporting the news became known as the “MacNeil-Lehrer style of journalism.” Their approach helped lay the foundation for modern public media reporting.
Jim was born in 1934 in Wichita, Kansas, the son of Lois, a bank clerk, and Harry, a bus station manager. He attended Victoria College in Texas and then studied journalism at the University of Missouri.
Having his father and brother before him enlist in the Marines, Jim served three years as an infantry officer in the late 1950s, including time in the Pacific. He saw no combat, but spoke often of how the experience shaped him.
His journalism philosophy was guided by nine tenets:
1. Do nothing I cannot defend.
2. Cover, write and present every story with the care I would want if the story were about me.
3. Assume there is at least one other side or version to every story.
4. Assume the viewer is as smart and caring and good a person as I am.
5. Assume the same about all people on whom I report.
6. Assume personal lives are a private matter until a legitimate turn in the story absolutely mandates otherwise.
7. Carefully separate opinion and analysis from straight news stories and clearly label everything.
8. Do not use anonymous sources or blind quotes except on rare and monumental occasions. No one should be allowed to attack another anonymously.
9. “I am not in the entertainment business.”

Kobe Bryant
1978 - 2020
Kobe Bryant, the 18-time NBA All-Star who won five championships and became one of the greatest basketball players of his generation during a 20-year career spent entirely with the Los Angeles Lakers, died in a helicopter crash Sunday. He was 41.1978 - 2020
Bryant died in a helicopter crash near Calabasas, California, a source told The Associated Press. It was unclear if family members were on the helicopter.
Bryant retired in 2016 as the third-leading scorer in NBA history, finishing two decades with the Lakers as a prolific scorer with a sublime all-around game and a relentless competitive ethic. He held that spot in the league scoring ranks until Saturday night, when the Lakers’ LeBron James passed him for third place during a game in Philadelphia, Bryant’s hometown.

No...Sorry...French is very hard to learn, especially when compared to English! French has several nasal and uvular sounds which are really hard to pronounce...
My conclusion is: Only french people can speak french.

And then we have the French-speaking parts of Canada, Quebec!
I think that Canadian French, aka Quebecoise, is impossibly cute, and if you want the names of famous Quebecoise-speaking gay porn stars, we have Jake B4ss and - my own Number One favourite - Justin L3beau!!! :heart:
