It seems like obituaries keep hitting The Annex, but I felt it worth noting that actor/singer Sheb Wooley, who had a big hit with "Purple People Eater" has died at age 82. Apparently he had been suffering from lukemia beginning in 1996.
Not quite as sad, as he is at that age, but definitely worth mentioning. He also starred in westerns including High Noon and the TV series Rawhide.
Sheb Wooley RIP

My first "real" bicycle was called "The Purple People Eater".
At least that's what I called it. Nifty song, and I didn't know it was him in those flicks.
