It was on television as breaking news before I gave up and went to bed a little after midnight. |

I saw it this morning in the paper. Funny, our daughter just discovered him. We bought her one of his books for Easter.

I think I need a trip to the local library. A little Slaughterhouse Five or Galapagos may be just the medicine right now.
RIP Kurt.

"...somebody should be comparing the amount of airtime Vonnegut’s passing is getting compared to the death of Anna Nicole Smith. I believe the ratio might provide an exact, scientific, numerical measure on our misplaced priorities."
