    Rummy's dead.  This is a known known.

    He could have faked his death. The absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.

    Is that a known unknown?

    R.I.P. "Beautiful" Bobby Eaton, age 62. Best known for being 1/2 of the Midnight Express, widely regarded as one of the greatest tag teams ever, Bobby was one of my personal wrestling heroes. ;(

    RIP Bobby Eaton.  The Midnight Express (Eaton and Condry, Eaton and Lane; I don't think I saw the earlier pre-Eaton version but may have) were one of those tag teams that regardless which territory I saw them in, you knew they were headed to the top to feud with the best.  By all accounts I've heard, Bobby was a good guy, someone who I don't think I've heard anyone in the wrestling business say anything bad about and who fans have only had positive things to say about their interactions with him. And with wrestlers that pretty rarified country because usually someone held a grudge somewhere, but not with Bobby from what I've heard.

    Trevor Moore, most notable for being one of the main guys of The Whitest Kids U' Know. Always thought that show was awful from a number of clips I had been sent over the years because they didn't know how to time or structure their jokes quite right, but the ideas of their jokes weren't bad and comedy is super subjective and as far as I know he wasn't a terrible person, so...RIP. Cause of death not specified beyond "accident".

    Against stupidity we have no defense. Neither protests nor force can touch it. Reasoning is of no use. Facts that contradict personal prejudices can simply be disbelieved - indeed, the fool can counter by criticizing them, and if they are undeniable, they can just be pushed aside as trivial exceptions. So the fool, as distinct from the scoundrel, is completely self-satisfied. In fact, they can easily become dangerous, as it does not take much to make them aggressive. For that reason, greater caution is called for than with a malicious one. Never again will we try to persuade the stupid person with reasons, for it is senseless and dangerous.

    I remember watching that on IFC along with the Henry Rollins show. It was usually not great, but sometimes I randomly think about some of the sketches or songs they'd do. ****.
