We Have a Wiener.....


Well Mr. Dave O'Connor must have had a snow day this week because his
good research had him in first with the one and only......
Salvatore Phillip "Sonny" Bono.

Who....
--Co-wrote "She Said Yeah" that was covered by the Rolling Stones

--Godfather to Red Hot Chili Pepper's lead singer Anthony Kiedis

--Decided he had had enough of show business the day he was on the set of
 Fantasy Island (1977), shooting a scene with HervĂ© Villechaize as Tattoo,
 and misremembered Tattoo's name. Villechaize flew into a rage, sputtering at Bono,
 and Bono (as he related later) literally asked himself
 what the hell was he doing there.

Well done Mr. Dave O'C. My friend of a friend lives next to the the tree/property in Aspen where Sonny met his demise. The beat goes on.....
