    "RUP"?

    I'm assuming the "I" and "U" keys are too close together?

    You know there is that superstition that these things sometimes happen in threes, mostly with performers in the entertainment field, movies, muscians, singers etc. I hope that's not the case.

    Wow, I remember reading just the other day how Watts had dropped out of the latest planned tour due to a medical procedure. Quite a week indeed.

    Because people stop counting at 3. If someone else passes away today, they won't count them or start a new 3 count. It really is a silly superstition.

    And who in hell would put Nehei together with Everly and Watts?
    There came a time when the Old Gods died! The Brave died with the Cunning! The Noble perished locked in battle with unleashed Evil! It was the last day for them! An ancient era was passing in fiery holocaust!

    no one really. Use to be that it had to be someone in the same milieu....so the third one would have to be someone in rock/pop music field. Or 3 film/TV stars if that were the case. But with COVID I don't think it matters much these days.
