Some Christmas cheer...
The death of Karen Carpenter is something I remember as vividly as the day John Lennon was shot or when the Challenger exploded. It's not up there with 9/11 but it was pretty devastating for fans of The Carpenters - and there are many gay guys in their 40s who know exactly what I mean.
One nice thing though is all the music Karen and her brother Richard left behind - including two classic Christmas albums. My favorite of all the holiday songs they recorded is "Merry Christmas Darling."
Enjoy...
