another thought upon reading Mark Watches, not really related to the first

[kattahj]

An interesting side effect of reading Doctor Who reviews parallell with a poem by Tage Danielsson to Lena Nyman (I still find it quite melancholy that she's dead. Actually, I still find it quite melancholy that he's dead): Suddenly I stopped and went, Huh. Tage could totally play the Doctor

Oh, god. When I got to the last item on this list, it hit me like a punch to the gut how sad it is that Lena Nyman is dead. Vargsången!

Stadslollan is a such a comedic masterpiece. In my family, we reference the sun as "en stor jävla lampa mitt i fejset" all the time - it's one of those HasseåTage phrases that are part of our everyday vocabulary.

Yeah. She'd been ill for quite some time, apparently, which I hadn't known. If anyone seemed like they'd become a hale old woman, it was her.

And Stadslollan is just awesome. I love her delivery.

I still have a hard time understanding that Tage isn't with us anymore, and now Lena is gone too. *sniffle*

Mmm. :-( Men bättre en kort tid än ingen alls!
