5. What? I seriously though he had died years ago
I thought he had died shortly after leaving Congress. I wonder who I've had him confused with all these years. :crazy:

6. You could be thinking of Phil Crane.
Edited on Wed Aug-11-10 11:41 AM by City Lights
He was ousted in 2004 and died in January, 2005.

8. Don't feel bad. I thought for nearly 30 years that rocker Peter Frampton
had died prematurely in the late 70's of a drug overdose.
