[url=https://apnews.com/d4184bf40c33aeda5bbae9d687fea1b6]Charles Portis[/url][quote]NEW YORK (AP) — Novelist Charles Portis, a favorite among critics and writers for such shaggy dog stories as "Norwood" and "Gringos" and a bounty for Hollywood whose droll, bloody Western "True Grit" was a best-seller twice adapted into Oscar nominated films, died Monday at age 86.

Portis, a former newspaper reporter who apparently learned enough to swear off talking to the media, had been suffering from Alzheimer's in recent years. His brother, Jonathan Portis, told The Associated Press that he died in a hospice in Little Rock, Arkansas, his longtime residence.[/quote]

Heather Couper
 
Alas poor Heather! I knew her, Horatio, a woman of infinite jest, of most excellent fancy.

[URL="https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-51562165"]Heather Couper[/URL] and I knew each other from our Oxford days. She once gave a talk to OUAS (the Oxford University Astronomical Society) and greeted me with the phrase: "Hello Paul, my old sausage, how are you doing?". This caused a little surprise in the people near by, one of whom asked me: "What did she just call you?".

She was often called "Heather Cowpat", but never in her hearing AFAIK.

Very :sad:

There would have been a time for such an emoticon.
Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day
To the last syllable of recorded time,
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life’s but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more: it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
