We've lost another great one...



Singer, Songwriter Warren Zevon Dies

LOS ANGELES (AP) _ Warren Zevon, who wrote and sang the rock hit

``Werewolves of London'' and was among the wittiest and most original of a

broad circle of singer-songwriters to emerge from Los Angeles in the 1970s,

has died. He was 56. A lifelong smoker until quitting several years ago,

Zevon announced in September 2002 that he had been diagnosed with terminal

lung cancer and had only months to live. He spent much of that time visiting

with his two grown children and working on a final album.





2003 will go down as the year we lost everyone we really, really enjoyed. The talent agencies in heaven must be doing back flips right now. Kate, Gregory, Bob, Charles, and now Warren. I'd like to be an cherubic fly on those walls...
