Agreed! I'm not sure that he was that old, was he?

Live it up peeps! Enjoy what we've been given. You just never know when it's your time...

oh dang, too sad

reading his FB page where he posted recently about getting first social security check is just crappy icing on a crap cake.

I remember his dog poop thread fondly.

OMG, he ran a 2:51 in the Boston Marathon 50 years ago. Wow.

RIP, Bill.
