Just saw that Cyd Charisse died today at 86 after having a heart attack.

I spent a lot of my pre-teen and teen years in love with musicals from the 40s and 50s.  Fred Astaire, Gene Kelly, Danny Kaye, Debbie Reynolds and all the others.  Plus I also was addicted to the non-musicals of the era as well.  *sigh* I miss them.
