I realize I'm late to the wake but I'm really affected by Robin Williams' death... what a bummer... what terrible news to wake up to...

One of those guys that just made the world a better place....I was hanging out with my my inlaw, with some relatives from Argentina...everybody was just so bummed out..

I think his early 80s (almost surely 82?) stand up act video is brilliant..this is the one where he is wearing the black baggy leather pants and goes on riffs about sperm, the "fuckin islands" (i.e., falkland islands), etc.... its also funny because he is so evidently coked up out of his mind but he lets fly...

a very very sad event....

enjoyed watching some mork and mindy over the weekend.

Charles M. Young - the great writer for Rolling Stone magazine back in the 70s -- the guy who showed a 15-year-old suburban Philly kid (me) what punk rock was all about back in 1977. Thank god for this man -- he saved me (and plenty of other kids) from a world of Boston, Billy Joel and Earth Wind & Fire.

Commas in the middle of words now? I eagerly await the day your posts devolve to the point they're just strings of commas broken up by randomly placed letters.

Is there anyway we can offer Melissa to the gods as tribute like in Hunger Games?
