Good bye Kurt (Not Cobain)
Just read an article about Kurt Vonnegut's death at 84. Fiction (or non-fiction depends on your state of mind) writer of such novels like Slaughterhouse Five, Cats Cradle, Player Piano, Slapstick, God Bless you Mr. Rosewater and a host of other 'science fiction meets Salvador Dali" on the way to the galaxy and other stories, he influenced (me included) a lot of free thinking individuals (sounds heavy) about the irrelevance of religion and politics and how in the end this contributes to the destruction of humanity.
God bless Mr. Kurt I will miss you...you made me cry while laughing at the meaninglessness of it ALL. Thank you for introducing me to Mr. Kilgore Trout and the rest....
