  1. How about Annette Funicello? One of Americas sweethearts for the Mickey Mouse Club years. She has been in failing health for a very long time. She has battled multiple sclerosis since 1987 -- can no longer read and can barely speak above a whisper. Her eyes are also going.

    LOS ANGELES Jan 10, 2007 (AP)— Yvonne De Carlo, the beautiful star who played Moses' wife in "The Ten Commandments" but achieved her greatest popularity on TV's slapstick comedy "The Munsters," has died. She was 84.

     

    De Carlo died of natural causes Monday at the Motion Picture & Television facility in suburban Los Angeles, longtime friend and television producer Kevin Burns said Wednesday.

     

    De Carlo, whose shapely figure helped launch her career in B-movie desert adventures and Westerns, rose to more important roles in the 1950s. Later, she had a key role in a landmark Broadway musical, Stephen Sondheim's "Follies."

     

    But for TV viewers, she will always be known as Lily Munster in the 1964-1966 horror-movie spoof "The Munsters." The series (the name allegedly derived from "fun-monsters") offered a gallery of Universal Pictures grotesques, including Dracula and Frankenstein's monster, in a cobwebbed gothic setting.

  3. The band's gannin' on, from Rolling Stone today:

     

    JAMES BROWN'S BAND VOWS TO KEEP THE FUNK ALIVE

    THE SOUL GENERALS, JAMES BROWN's eleven-piece band, have announced a possible February tour. The group has not yet determined whether it will seek to replace Brown with a lead vocalist or split up the singing duties among its current members

     

    If they haven't buried him by then the band can take him along. Sort of like a Weekend at Bernies theme.
