Dammit. A friend from college who I haven't been in touch with at all but remember fondly and would have liked to reconnect with has died. At least I got to hear a little bit about his life since I knew him via the obituary...
Lorne: Snakes? Uh-huh. And they came out of your what? Okay. Okay, well, did they get up there themselves or is this part of a, you know, a thing? No, I'm not judging...Do we fight snakes? Angel: Only if they're giant. Or demons. Or giant demons. Are they giant demon snakes? Lorne: Well, unless this guy's 30 feet tall, I'm thinking they're of the garden variety.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
I'm so sorry, -t. I've only had that happen once so far, but it was a gutpunch.

You've got friends to have good times with. When you need to share the trauma of a badly-written book with someone, that's when you go to family.
-t, I'm sorry. That's hard.

Thanks everyone. It's a very weird feeling, like getting the Cliff Notes of his life and knowing that the books is gone for good.

If any of that core group actually die from COVID now the conspiracy nuttos will go crazy.
There wasn't much reaction to Herman Cain was there?
You don't actually think that they would care that a black man died? It won't be real until someone that they actually think has value dies. My money was was on Christie, but the devil was busy that day.
