A stout-hearted scamp of the first order, he will be missed, and I will toast his memory tonight with a rum cocktail he taught me to make. Cheers to one and all, and a fond farewell, good Cleve.

The operation took place at night. Israeli transport planes carried 100 commandos over 4,000 kilometres (2,500 mi) to Uganda for the rescue operation. The operation, which took a week of planning, lasted 90 minutes. Of the 106 remaining hostages, 102 were rescued and three were killed. The other hostage was in a hospital and was later killed. Five Israeli commandos were wounded, and one, unit commander Lt. Col. Yonatan Netanyahu, was killed. Netanyahu was the older brother of Benjamin Netanyahu, who would later become Prime Minister of Israel.

Fans of Duke's: I've now sampled this southern speciality in a tuna sandwich (on sourdough toast topped with grated and grilled Seaside Cheddar cheese) that I made with my own two hands. And I say: it's worthy. I still prefer the slightly sweeter taste of Hellmann's, but we'll be using the Duke's at least until it runs out, and then we'll decide whether to include it in the mix going forward.

You're right about the question, brainiac. 😜

It was 101 during soundcheck (this was in August). I was standing onstage at the soundboard, and Bruce slogged by me muttering something like, "How do you f*cking live here?!"

Alan always wears loud colors. If you watched the Beatles doc, he is on the roof off to one side wearing a yellow shirt and purple tie (or maybe the opposite).

As a purveyor of geeky wine and spirits to fancy bars and restaurants, my path crossed with Brother Cleve many times. Most recently at a bar he helped open on the LES recently. That his range of experience and expertise ranged from music, to cocktails and spirits, and so many things in-between - and how many people eulogized him this week - is a testament to his eminence.

the one thing I can recall about Spanish gender stuff in groups is that if there's a group of a million women and one man, it's masculine but if it's all women then it's feminine

No resolution to the "Flaregun" mystery, but in 1996, Musician magazine, a review concluded: "I've no idea whether that's a 'real' theme, but if it's not, somebody in TV land ought to find a show to match it."
