Enough, already!

They say deaths come in threes or sevens....we're headed squarely for a seven at this point, as we are now at four major celebrity deaths in just over a week....
Tim Russert, host of Meet the Press, and a fixture of the American political landscape. And a devoted father, son and husband, and a heck of a writer.
Tasha Tudor, author, who wrote WONDERFUL children's books.
Cyd Charisse, dancer/actress. Best known to me as the dancer love interest in a couple of scenes in Singin' in the Rain with Gene Kelly.
and last, but certainly not least, George Carlin. He changed the face of American comedy, and was a legend.

All four will never be forgotten, and sorely missed. Here's hoping it stops at 4, rather than 7...we don't need to lose any more talent!
