Still having trouble coming to grips that Kurt Loder is 70
That means that Loder was 48 when he was working for MTV news in April 1994 when Kurt Cobain died. Kurt celebrated his 70th on Tuesday, which should start to bring perspective to those of us who grew up during a time when MTV actually had news and played videos. By comparison, VJ Downtown Julie Brown is 51; MTV News vet John Norris is 45 or 46 (Wikipedia doesn’t have a firm grip on his birthday); Alison Stewart is 48; Serena Altschul is 44; Tabitha Soren is 47.
The guy found in Florida DID NOT ESCAPE FROM SHAWSHANK
He walked away from a Sandusky, Ohio work camp where inmates were sent for good behavior to serve out their sentences. Yes, Freshwaters served time at Shawshank (in Mansfield, Ohio), but was rewarded with a trip north to the shores of Lake Erie.

#Padres Tony Gwynn had 34 career multi-K games. Jose Altuve — one of the best contact men in baseball today — already has four more.
