Kurt Vonnegut 1922-2007

Recommended Posts

I think you can tell a lot about our culture by comparing the time spent talking about Kurt Vonnegut's death to the time spent on Anna Nicole Smith's death. To paraphrase someone else - it will be a great day when a writer like Vonnegut leads off news shows, and you have to google "Anna Nicole" to find out what happened to her.

I wish that were the case. I'm at work and can't pull up the URL, but there is a user on YouTube known as "TheResident", (theresident.net) who did a nice little farewell to Kurt Vonnegut. It's worth checking out.
So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh
Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright
'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life
Make light!
