Default OT: Casey Kasem RIP
One of the voices of my childhood passed today. Thankfully this ends for Casey having to witness the family struggle over him. I prefer to remember the man with the great stories and who inspired each week to keep reaching for the stars while remaining focused on the here and now.

I still listen weekly on the 70s channel on Sirius/FM. A legend.

It was essential listening. I loved the little ditties that punctuated the show, like "Casey's coast to coast!"

Default We should all make a vow right now!
To never treat our loved ones as bad as this family did. Reminds me Ted Williams' family. A real shame.

Honor thy mother and, today especially, thy father.

I thought the exact same thing, Raymond. Just a shame.

I grew up listening to Casey's countdown. RIP to a good man.
