harvery pekar RIP...


 another one of my idols, weird celebrity crush, etc... has passed away.  here's the story in the news.  i just thought he was so amazing on those old letterman episodes.  funny, angry, defiant, and depressed all at once.

i saw him eating at tommy's in coventry a few years back.  his eye brows were like bushy goat horns and he looked annoyed & rushed as he ate his tuna salad sandwich.  i decided not to ask for an autograph.

i guess i always felt good knowing there was a cleveland curmudgeon out there fighting the good fight...

 i never got to met harvey, but i did get a hug from toby at some horror convention.  he was very sweet!

Good bye, Mr. Pekar.

I hope Toby, and Joyce, and Danielle are ok.

texas auto insurance quote One of my favorite things about blogging is this community of bloggers. We aren’t cut-throat. We share successes and miseries. And when something works, we don’t keep it to ourselves – we want it to work for everyone. I love blogging and hope that it becomes full-time one day, but I enjoy the learning and growing (the journey) and am a very patient man. Martha - california auto insurance quote online
