I was just about to post this. Certainly shocking--and disheartening--news.Quoting Boner M (view post)

Hopefully I'll have the energy to update my signature soon.
Crazy. He was one talented dude and one of the funniest writers I've come across. Loved A Supposedly Fun Thing I'd Never Do Again and, to a lesser degree, Broom of the System. I actually just bought Infinite Jest two weeks ago.Quoting Boner M (view post)
oh my fucking god.

That's pretty close to being the worst possible news I could have ever gotten. My favorite author by far. I read him every day.
The severed arm perfectly acquitted itself, because of the simplicity of its wishes and its total lack of doubt.
He hanged himself? People still do that?
Anyway, I picked up Infinite Jest while working at Borders and read a few pages. Way too verbose for me. It was like reading a different language.
Sure why not?

Always the best way to digest a novel.Quoting Watashi (view post)
Apologies for the length, but he was not a man of few words.

"...famed Japanese pop singer and director Nagi Noda recently passed away due to complications during surgery for injuries she sustained in a traffic accident last year. She was only 35. Known for her quirky music videos, bizarre short films (involving weird poodle people and other anthropomorphic creatures), and the amazing album covers she designed, Noda will be sorely missed by the international art community, which can only wonder what more amazing weirdness she would have come up with in the years to come."

Michael Crichton. He was 66.
Movie Theater DiaryQuoting Donald Glover
Wow. That was a very private illness. R.I.P.
It saddens me that Studs Terkel has passed. He was such a great interview. Such a bright, vibrant man, even, nay, especially in old age. I can only hope to age that well.
Mitch Mitchell, drummer for the Jimi Hendrix Experience, dead at 62. RIP.
