RIP to one of my cats who unexpectedly died last night. She was 8 1/2 years old. I feel so horrible because I was out of town, and couldn't be with her one last time... It sucks so much, because she was the one who always comforted me when I was upset. This year has just been fucking terrible. :'(

Is it bad that my fondest memories of him is Will Sasso doing "Kenny Roger's Jackass" on MADtv?

Not that I didn't like his music, but I'm not enough of a Boomer to have ever been a fan.

Not a fan either, but I remember hearing his songs a lot on the radio when I was a kid.
 
As a child, his "Islands in the Stream" with Dolly Parton was constantly on the radio every morning when my mom drove me to school.

EDIT: Reminded my town had one of his "Kenny Rogers Roasters" restaurants but I never went before it closed pretty quickly.

There's still plenty of them around, but you have to go to Malaysia. I guess that's out for the near future. They were pretty good, as I recall.

It's amazing how many American IP's end up thriving in other countries these days, like Mister Donut in Japan, Shakey's Pizza in The Philippines or ChiChi's in Belgium.

I loved those made for TV western movies he did. They were so fun and completely wholesome.

Edit: Yes, I am older than dirt, thank you.

Must've been popular if they could get five movies out of Kenny's song like that.
