Work and internet futziness have kept me down today, but I can't leave before mentioning this shocking news that reader Mike A. has tipped me to: Charles Rocket is dead! For those either not alive or aware in the early eighties, Charles Rocket was on Saturday Night Live during their really crappy year, hosting Weekend Update and famously saying "fuck" on the air in 1981 (though he wasn't the first person to do so, Paul Shaffer had already said it during a sketch in 1980). Supposedly his death - brought about by his throat being slashed - has been ruled a suicide. Who killed C.R.? Who the fuck did it??? The cops are obviously too scared to solve this mystery themselves, but IAAFOTS is on the case... my first suspect is going to be Judy Miller -just because I don't like her one little bit - but no lead will be left unfollowed, so if you see something, say something.
