Leonard Cohen


How can a man/singer/poet/artist so revered by so many and who dies at the age of 82 ... see: NY Times Obit .... yet I don't recall ever knowing any of his songs or hearing him sing or know really anything about the man? I must really be an out-of-touch doofus ...

    What a setup for what I will label a "Potts-shot."

    Every one one of us are "out of touch doofuses" in many disciplines and geographies. Today's NYT obits lament the death of Aileen Mehle, Gossip’s Grande Dame Known as ‘Suzy.' I have never heard of her. So too pretty much every one else called out excepting Janet Reno, Robert Vaughn, and Leonard Cohen.

    Me too. Even after seeing video clips of Leonard Cohen's "hits," I am not recognizing them or him. Is this what dementia is like?
