a year, more or less

The world's really worse off without wouldprefernot2 and Hunter S. Thompson.

These things deserve comment.

*sigh*

I just wish HST had been alive to see Cheney's shotgun antics. He'd have loved that.

[sabotabby]

I bet it would have made him not want to kill himself.

There's a lot that's happened that I wish he could have seen.

I don't know anything about wouldprefernot2, or what happened.

I often think about HST and what he would have to say about the events of the day. Bill Hicks too. I wish he was still around.

[sabotabby]

wouldprefernot2 was an LJ friend of mine (I never met him in person, alas), who died of cancer a year ago. I miss him.

I just heard Bill Hicks recently and was quite impressed.

I'm sorry to hear that. :(

I <3 Bill Hicks. I miss him a lot.

[kynn.livejournal.com]

Yup :(

[sabotabby]

And yet Cheney's still breathing. (Well, if you can call it that.)

He's more machine now than man; twisted and evil.

I think that we will all miss those who have departed. I think the question is not whether the world is worse, but rather what their impact has been on the world to make it a better place. Both, have made their contributions to society, individuals and history in their own way. Herder once argued that someone becomes immortal through their contributions to society in the spheres of art etc., and I think they both have done so.

You = Pollyanna. But nevertheless, yes, you're right.

It always weirds me out reading the journal of someone who died...or at least, I am assuming he died?

Unrelated, but I want you to rant about any aspect of the Palestinian conflict and your involvement as a Jew demon in human form. Bitch about Palestinians, Israelis, other Jews, whites, etc. You can direct it anyway you want, and of course, bonus points if you use racial slurs.

p.s. reply to this comment with your rant!

You assume correctly. And yes; that's one of those things about the internets to which I have yet to get accustomed.

How's about I rant in a separate post?

Sweet! Yaayy rant!
