Very sad news. He was only 53 years old. It's so sad that both Tony Snow and Tim Russert died in the prime of their lives. They were two of the good guys, respected by people on both sides of the aisle.

Yes...but it is the law that friends of dead personalties are better than your friends who die.

And so....they get nationally eulogized.





Which is fine,really.

Familiarity is a funny thing.
Dr. Debackey, the heart guy, died at 99 today.
So close to the century mark.

LOL....kinda of like when your Mom turned to your Dad the day you were born and said "Honey, someday our little Morte will grow up and be the best haunt-er in the Universe" to which your Dad replied " I just hope he doesn't like pink" :{>:

Or, this little fella... This sweet little 6lb 8 ounce bundle of goodness will be born in a Taco Bell with this really bright star shining on it. And these 3 bumbs off the street hitchicked in from Laredo, they will give offerings of Big Bean Burritos covered with Murrrrrr.

R.I.P. Tony...you exhibited a rare sense of class and grace...seldom seen in politics,or anywhere else for that matter!
