RIP Malcolm-Jamal Warner, 54, who perished in a drowning accident in Costa Rica. Born in Jersey City, he was an alumnus of the Professional Childrens School in New York. He shot to fame as one of the kids in 197 episodes of The Bill Cosby Show, which garnered him an Emmy nomination for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series. Although he did some plays and movies, he will be remembered for his prolific work in TV. He was in 13 episodes of Here and Now, 89 of Malcolm and Eddie, 35 of Jeremiah, 22 of Listen Up, 29 of Reed Between the Lines, 15 of Major Crimes, ten of Ten Days in the Valley, 96 of The Resident, and he made many guest appearances on popular primetime fare. He did a voiceover in 41 episodes of The Magic School Bus. He dabbled in Jazz, cutting four albums, and won Celebrity Poker Showdown (2003) in record time. He did a podcast and voiced audiobooks. He has 73 credits as a producer. He won a Grammy for Best Traditional R&B Performance — Jesus Children (with Robert Glasper Experiment featuring Lalah Hathaway). His album Hiding in Plain View was nominated for a Grammy for Best Spoken Word Poetry. He directed music videos and sitcoms. He was a father of one. Gone way too soon with so much more to offer.

Headline from newsmax.com: “S&P 500, Nasdaq Notch Record-High Closes.” Can you hear the handwringing of leftists?
From NM: “Walking a Little Faster Counters Frailty in Seniors.” For whatever reason, I’m not able to spur this.
If there were ever any doubt that anyone can host a podcast…Hunter Biden.

Kudos to this man. From 39 Comforting Bits of Nostalgia For a Trip Down Memory Lane by Cracked Writers, msm.com:
Everybody was happy about today’s weather. It looked like it would be a disappointing haul for the Anti-Inflation Book Shop, nothing doing for the first half of the session, then Wolf and Sophie came along and bought a set of James Fenimore Cooper works translated into Russian, the massive The Beatles: The Biography by Bob Spitz; The Defector by Evelyn Anthony; Sabrina (1995) on DVD; and On Democracies and Death Cults: Israel and the Future of Civilization by Douglas Murray. My thanks, and to the gentleman who purchased four hardcovers in Russian; and to the young woman who smelled great, who selected Roget’s Thesaurus and a terrific Lexicon of words and phrases.
