As You Tube are so reluctant to show region limitations, I hope this is OK. Great track, from when Mott were a rock band, before Bowie influenced them towards Glam...

I was too young to remember him as LBJ's spokesman. I only remember him as a journalist. I suppose there's 30 year olds who only think of George Stephanopoulos as a TV host. He could do great in-depth reporting.

Damn. Very sad that he didn’t live to at least induction day. RIP, Cobra.

I just read that D.Wayne Lucas passed away the other day. I saw Codex beat Genuine Risk at the Preakness. Jack Klugman owned a horse that finished just out of the money.

Short of Baffert, he maybe had as much success at big races as anyone. For a while, wasn't the knock that his horses could only win at shorter distances?

Could be. I remember he won the triple crown one year with two different horses.

Norman 'On-Yer-Bike' Tebbit (94) - Employment Secretary in one of Thatcher's Cabinets. Came to be regarded as the epitome of uncaring Thatcherism, and (probably) the most reviled politician of his day...His rescue, following the Brighton Bomb, was shown live, on TV, and became one of the defining images of the era.
