And that's the way it is
« on: July 18, 2009, 07:21:09 am »

Walter Cronkite? What the fuck? So he was 92, but that's still not the news I fuck*ng needed.

Here's the link:

I'm too fuck*ng drunk to embed the link in my words.

I need to go for a walk.

Even a youngin' like myself is stricken by this.

There is no main dude or lady to report on this news. Tonight, it was spoken by a lot of different dudes and ladies. That's some kind of reflection of the way things have changed, I think.

Sucks.  I once wrote a short story where the avatar of God that appeared to the protagonist looked exactly like Walter Cronkite.

He was a journalistic hero of mine.
