Darn it, I was looking forward to pictures on the Target website of their new specialized team with extra limbs, allowing them to be almost superhero-like in their job skills.

Target and Wal-Mart also have specialized teams ( called automation ) that do jobs that staff used to do . Both have automated machines that count money compared to back in the day when staff used to do the same job.

Yesterday, I was watching BBC News America, and they had a nice tribute to his life and his music. One interesting fact was that he was into jazz music; and aside of his time with the Stones, he also performed on the side as the drummer for his jazz band, Charlie Watts and the Tantet.
He was cited by many as one of the best drummers, ever. RIP Charlie.
Charlie Watts performed at the world famous Blue Note in Greenwich Village NYC with his jazz band. I wished I could have been there.

RIP Charlie. Maybe now the Stones can get someone without all that grey hair so he can be as young as the rest of the band, but still has enough strength to lift the drum sticks.

I was surprised to hear (some time ago) that the Stones were going on tour this year. Age is just a state of mind, apparently.RIP Charlie. Maybe now the Stones can get someone without all that grey hair so he can be as young as the rest of the band, but still has enough strength to lift the drum sticks.
(The above aside, Charlie did indicate that he wasn't going on the tour in 2021. Sadly, it would have been the first concert since 1963 that he would have missed. That's right -- I read that he never missed one of their concerts.)
Mick Jagger still young at heart became a father again in 2016 at the age of 73 with his 29 year old girlfriend.RIP Charlie. Maybe now the Stones can get someone without all that grey hair so he can be as young as the rest of the band, but still has enough strength to lift the drum sticks.

I really wish more people who shouldn't be on the road thought that way.

73??? That doesn't sound like youth, it sounds like insanity. I suspect the mother and child will be well taken care of when Mick is, well, otherwise disposed.
I like a lot of the Stone's stuff, but when bringing up children and trying to convince them that drugs are bad and, best case scenario, shorten your life, they are not a group of people that can be used as cautionary tails. Except for the whatever illness it is that makes them need the crowd adulation and letting someone else spend and enjoy a lot of their wealth. Just my curiosity, for sure, and perhaps a little bit of envy, so just saying! All their faces are starting to resemble a Rand McNally road map.

He was treated for throat cancer in 2004, one site said that was the cause of death don't know if that is true or not. We are loosing my 60's rock band members === scaryI was surprised to hear (some time ago) that the Stones were going on tour this year. Age is just a state of mind, apparently.

And that young group called The Beatles, have lost half the band and Paul is 79 and Ringo is 81. It just isn't possible that much time has passed, but it has.
