Alexis Arguello, who I remember best from Warren Zevon's song "Boom Boom Mancini" ("When Alexis Arguello gave Boom Boom a beating, seven weeks later, he was back in the ring....)



And Mollie Sugden, who really was brilliantly funny in "Are You Being Served?" is dead at 86:



(It makes me a bit morbid to think that this experience of people I remember, not completely antique old B/W movie and tv stars, but people I actually watched, dying, will likely accelerate as I get older.)
