What a Day for the Obits

Today’s three-fer . . .
1) Richard Hamilton, British Painter and a Creator of Pop Art, Dies at 89
2) Carl Oglesby, Antiwar Leader in 1960s, Dies at 76
3) John Calley, Hollywood Chief, Dies at 81
Taking the long view . . .

Doncha just luuhv zat akzent?
Postscript: Arman’s epitaph — Enfin Seul! — puts it best. Well, almost. There’s no topping Jack MacGowran reading from Beckett’s Malone Dies: I shall soon be quite dead at last in spite of all.
