Ok, that would be The Who. My question is, how did Moon get away with that? Wouldn't that be vehicular homicide? That IS a good question, Dex. When the U. S. diplomat's wife killed a Brit because she was driving on the wrong side of the road, it was quite a hub bub. This accident should have been given the same kind of scrutiny, especially since Moon was most likely under the influence of some kind of substance. If I have time later, I'll see what I can find out about it. I can't find anything that says arrested or charged with anything. Guessing he might have just paid the family off.

For tonight:
Their father was a rich corporate executive. They decided to murder their parents on August 20, 1989 in Beverly Hills, California. The motive for the murder was believed to be a large inheritance. They claimed during the trial that we were sexually and psychologically abused by the parents. That defense didn't work and they were sentenced to life in prison. Who are they?

If I have time later, I'll see what I can find out about it. it wasn't so much that the odious and cowardly woman was on the wrong side of the road and the yong man was killed it was the fact that she ran away.. just took to her heels and scarperd…. and seems it wasn't the first time she had driving incident..... the young mans parents are suing the Home secretary personally...and if successful will go on to sue the American government for complicity of aiding and abetting murder/felony..... not so much a hub bub,, as down right fury at America abusing dilomatic immunity for a non diplomat... it stinks of corruption.....and of course it means America hasn't a hope in hell of getting some one who hacked into the pentagon..... unless its an exchange I remember the moon story but not the details... I think[not sure]think moon reversed and and the man was killed....

Killing family members for gain is sick and sad but it's happened off and on for many years.

You got it, Joe. oseph Lyle Menéndez (born January 10, 1968) and Erik Galen Menéndez (born November 27, 1970) are American brothers who were convicted in 1996 for the 1989 shotgun murders of their wealthy parents, LIVE Entertainment executive José Menéndez and his wife Mary ("Kitty"). Although the brothers were not considered suspects at first, suspicions about their involvement arose when they began to spend money lavishly after the murders. During the trial, the brothers alleged that they committed the murders because of years of sexual and emotional abuse that they suffered at the hands of their parents, particularly their father. They were first tried separately, with one jury for each brother. Both juries deadlocked, which resulted in a mistrial. For the second trial, they were tried together by the same jury, which found them guilty, and as a result, they were sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lyle_and_Erik_MenendezI wonder if they asked Dad to raise the4ir allowences. Bad seeds! No question tonight. Let's try to pick up the ones that are unanswered.

Ah but she was a wonder in her day.
As far as I know, Paul Kantner and Marty Balin are no longer living. The rest I have not kept up with so do not know. I believe David Crosby was part of the JA for awhile. Confusing.

As far as I know, the rest except Balin and Kantner are still living. They were before my time but I always liked the Starship and my parents had their album.

Who then was the Gentleman.
(That's the answer)
Just for some pretty useless information, back in the Middle Ages when the people were trying to shake off the rule of the nobility and the church there were peasants uprisings We all know of Wat Tyler in England but also in Germany they had the same problems with Church and Nobilty bullying them and after Martin Luther started his preachings, a German nobleman called Florian Geyer decided to fight for the common man and he gathered together some minor knights and squires and developed a heavy Cavalry unit he called 'the Black Company. (Der Schwarze Hauffen), These guys were so good that they could hold their own against professionals and helped the Peasant army win battles. They had a song, 'Spies voran', (lances pointed forwards), can be found on Youtube, also their motto was, 'When Adam delved and Eve span, who then was the Gentleman'. Herman Fegelein who was one of rhe Commanders of the German SS Cavalry regiment named after Florian Geyer deserted his post, this angered the Fuhrer so much he ordered Fegelein to be tracked down and brought to justice for besmirching the name ,'Florian Geyer' (see movie Untergang / Downfall)
