    We should start a ridiculous rumor that he was MURDERED by Trump so that Larry Hogan can try and replace him with a Republican. I'll bet no one's ever thought of that.

                    A thread on a music board I frequent was specifically, how mind-numbingly depressing its going to be over the next number of years as everyone who was anyone as a musician from the classic rock period is going to be dying. Hell, Barrere was one of the younger ones at age 71.

                      Fortunately? If you like grunge, a bunch of them are already dead.

                            There are 3 traditions related to the gorges on campus.

                            #1. Drowning. This is the boring one. It's water, people are clumsy, people drown. c.f. bath tubs.



                            #2. Falling. Students get drunk. Drunks are stupid. Cutting monkey shines on the bridges will have its inevitable consequence. Assisted by the fact that Cornell looks like this four months of the year:



                            #3. Suicide. Actually taking the leap of faith. This happens a lot but almost never among students. It's nearly always townies. And it's a breath-taking way to go out:



                            For this story I'm provisionally assuming #2 until better informed.

                            In case anybody wondered I have never heard of a credible case of the missing #4. You kinda have to do this yourself, it's just logistically difficult to be "helped."

                                No, you don't understand the geography of the campus.



                                Most frat houses are north of the gorges. Most student housing is in West Campus (on campus) and Collegetown (off campus), south of the gorges. You have to cross.

                                Every year a couple kids go in tab A but don't come out slot B.
