That song always makes me cry. We'll miss you Luther.
And no one here picked him. Good god we all suck at this. You too, Angel of Death.

Perhaps it's more of who you would want to die rather than who you really think is going to kick it.

Death watch...

LOS ANGELES - Zsa Zsa Gabor suffered an apparent stroke at her Bel-Air home and underwent emergency surgery to clear a blocked artery.

Gabor and ninth husband von Anhalt — to whom she’s been married for 19 years — filed an elder abuse suit against daughter Francesca Hilton, claiming she stole $2 million by forging her mother’s signature to take out a loan on Gabor’s $14 million Bel-Air estate. Hilton’s father, hotel magnate Conrad Hilton, was Gabor’s second husband. (Gabor is the great-aunt of Paris and Nicky Hilton.)

Small world.

Pat McCormick

LOS ANGELES, California (AP) -- Pat McCormick, the walrus-mustachioed comedian and comedy writer who made regular appearances on "The Tonight Show" with Johnny Carson and "The Gong Show," has died at 78.

In one 1974 "Tonight Show," he streaked naked across the stage behind Carson during the opening monologue.

Man he was funny.

THat is a correct usage of "Ping! Pow!, if not taken literally, which is either defined as a Slave Victory Cry or a "burn on you, deli fraternity" putdown. In Queens and Jersey, it can be used to say both "hello" and "goodbye". Coming from an intellect like you, its just poetry.

Chief Justice Rehnquist hospitalized again
Second emergency treatment in 2 months for judge, who has cancer.

WASHINGTON - Chief Justice William H. Rehnquist was taken to the hospital with a fever Thursday, the second emergency treatment for the ailing 80-year-old justice in two months.

He would be my first "hit" if it happens.

this is bad. not quite as bad as Taxwonk wishing a healthy man would die, but still wishing anyone dead is quite sick.

I am not wishing him dead, Fuckhead. In fact I hope he lives a long long time.

that is uncool too. Respect the zen of his time when it comes. Please don't tell me you want to make a Terri Schiavo of the CJ of the SCOTUS!! We will be interpreting his head nods as a sign of concurrence or dissent. rEdiculous.
