A highlight of my first visit to the Somewhat-United-States was the Hustler store in San Diego.
Possibly the first "merch" I ever purchased... plus it gave me the idea for one of my first own-designed t-shirts years later...
I think I bought a t-shirt simply stating "HUSTLER" - but the text was a montage of porn-shots.
Years later, I produced a T with a map of NZ, formed of a similar porn-montage. Went down a treat at international customs checkpoints. -

Yet another person who I thought had died years ago.
Or was that Hugh Hefner ?
He's still going to parties with hot chicks

Rupert Neve (94)
Who?
Although maybe only audiophiles may recognise the name, Neve invented and designed some of the most amazing recording and audio equipment ever. Many of your favourite tunes will have benefited from Neve desks, channel amps and equalisers.
Neve mixing desks are the gold standard and his subsequent innovations enabled awesome home and budget studios.
Massive contribution to the recording industry -
The Band’s Robbie Robertson is selling his legendary 16-channel Neve 8014
This console has processed the sounds of Eric Clapton, Van Morrison and The Wolf of Wall Street. Would you pay the price for its grandeur?

That was weird, I saw the Robbie Robertson mentioned on the main page so clicked on the thread thinking he'd died.

Ronald Pickup. British character actor who seemed to pop up everywhere but was always excellent.

Not a famous person as such but well known in the NSW Rugby circles and a close friend for many years. The article is written by Peter FitzSimons.
Saying goodbye to a teammate leaves hearts full and eyes Red
There are some blokes who can step off both feet, others who are the heart, soul and very core of a team. ‘Red’ O’Connor was the latter.
We played a social (but highly competitive) game of touch together 2 or 3 times a week for a decade and often caught up for beers at the Rag and Famish pub in North Sydney until he and his family moved away from Sydney after which we sadly lost touch.
This really came as a shock, such a great character and yeah, only 3 years older than I am.
