    Waaaay too many lost. Our neighborhood is left with some huge gaping holes that can never be refilled. RIP to all those gone.

    That Stage shot of Chester is classic. RIP.

    Two of these were cyclists run down in car crashes—I refuse to say "accident" when referring to a preventable event any more—Kelly Hurley and Eddie Meuneau.

    I'm so tired of death; I think some of you know I lost my roommate to cancer last year. Death sucks.
