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...
