Somebody's gonna die soon, but I'm not sure who. I can feel it in my bones. Hopefully not me.

I probably took him for granted all these years. He used to really irritate me. But I was genuinely moved by all the tributes today.

He tried to wash the B.O. out of Elaine's hair on Seinfeld but was unsuccessful.

As a life long White Sox fan I was born and raised to hate all things "Cub". That's just the way it is in Chicago you must hate one and love the other. That said I watched a lot of Cubs baseball back in the 60's because they were on in the daytime and I was a kid who loved baseball. I always had a lot of respect for Ernie despite him being the ultimate Cub.

RIP #14

RIP Ernie "Let's play two" Banks.

Damn I missed Taylor Negron dying. About a week or so ago I popped in a guilty pleasure Nothing But Trouble. Maybe my spidey senses told me something. He was funny in that. "Dude, you could be a better host." "You have a BMW - act like it." And I loved how he said Chris "ka-DEES"

Rod McKuen died last week and it was a shock to me that this vile piece of human garbage was still polluting the earth with his vapid form. I hope he stays dead but in 100 years he will probably be cloned to again puke forth music and poetry even more idiotic than his pre-cloned self, and he will live on in eternity as a God. After all, it is pretty much what humanity deserves anyway. So coming full circle on this, I will end it by saying that Mckuen, like many, should have been strangled to death in his own crib. May he rot in hell and read poetry to Satan. It's the only task he was really meant for.

I used to hate Rod McKuen with a burning passion. However, when I had rickets he wrote me the loveliest letter. That was more than I could say for my parents, those bastards.

Wait, Rod M. Wrote Seasons in the Sun?? Now it all makes sense!

And Zeno, that was one helluva eulogy. Better that than some insincere clap-trap. ��

UNC basketball legend Dean Smith, who oddly always reminded me of Liberace.
