Why has elegance found so little following? Elegance has the disadvantage that hard work is needed to achieve it and a good education to appreciate it. - Edsger Wybe Dijkstra

Dammit, he is still alive!!

 

Apparently he was a victim of a similar hoax 2 years ago.

 

Sorry for the misunderstanding.

Thanks for shopping Pawn-O-Matic!

Hmm...

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.

    Ralphie May

     

    Chuckled a bit when I heard he was survived by his children, April May and August.

    But what happened to Juni and July?

    "only when you no-life you can exist forever, because what does not live cannot die."

    He only had 2 kids

     

    According to Wikipedia June is his daughter's middle name

    Roy Dotrice has passed on...

    Gord Downie is dead. Have to say I am skeptical of people saying they wept at the news.

    I was too young for Benson but Robert Guilliaume played Isaac Jaffe on my favorite television show, Sports Night.

    I just saw Fats Domino passed. Ain't that a shame. He was 89 and surrounded by family. That's the best way to go I guess.

    Yeah I'd found out because of Gfted's post.

     

    Was always partial to his "I'm Walking".

     

     

    And of course his The Fat Man is legendary -

    There's a certain point in one's life where one occasionally feels like they're measuring their years not by birthdays, but the rapidly increasing number of celebrity deaths per year that have you actually standing up and taking more personal notice, if that makes sense.

     

    RIP to all the ones so far this year.

    Still gaming with my 9900k/2080ti/32 ram. One day I suppose a game may inspire me to finally upgrade. Maybe.
