I won't make an inaapropriate comment, it's never a "happy occasion" when someone dies (except when Fred Phelps expires, at which time I will celebrate with abandon), so let me just say that I won't miss this man.

This also could have just been added under the "Bozo the Clown died" thread.
Honestly, I even found something good to say about Jerry Falwell, but -- well, I hope Carol Moseley-Braun is available to sing "Yankee Doodle" at his funeral, I'll just say.
And thanks for that HIV travel ban that's still around, Jesse.

Cheyenne Jackson tickled me. AFTER ordering SoMMS a drink but NOT tickling him, and hanging out with Girly in his dressing room (where he DIDN'T tickle her) but BEFORE we got married. To others. And then he tweeted Boobs. He also tweeted he's good friends with some chick on "The Voice" who just happens to be good friends with Tink's ex. And I'm still married. Oh, and this just in: "Pettiness, spite, malice ....Such ugly emotions... So sad." - After Eight, talking about MEEEEEEEE!!! I'm so honored! :-)

Whew! I saw the name "Namaste" and thought I was going to read something about how my karma was going to come back and bite me in the ass for my last post.
That happens every time I see the word "Namaste," actually!

He was 86 years old.

Every man's death diminishes me, but some deaths are less diminishing than others.
If the rule of three applies, I hope soon to be undiminished by the passing of Pat Robertson and Rush Limbaugh.

I'm a good speller, but a bad typist. Sorry.
At least I'm not a low-life bigot!

Posted: 7/4/08 at 5:08pmSometimes it's very difficult not to speak ill of the dead. Very few could test me on that front more than this human.
