A guy I know - barely an acquaintance really, but close friends with several of my friends - passed away yesterday. Unsure of cause.


He was probably the best rock drummer in Providence. Rest In Peace dude. Much respect for you.

Un-fkng-believable!

HOBBS, N.M. (AP) — A 13-year-old was driving the pickup truck that struck a van in West Texas in a fiery collision that killed nine people, National Transportation Safety Board Vice Chairman Bruce Landsberg said Thursday.
The truck’s left front tire, which was a spare tire, also blew out before impact, he said.

Was just about to post this. It's not totally confirmed but the news is coming from his aides.

Edit; For the first time in my life I will have a different Representative.

I listened to a podcast a while ago about the late Nick Begich. Well, it was more about solving the mystery of his plane crash. I wonder how Alaska politics would look if he hadn’t died. Don Young took over after his death, and actually lost to him in Young’s first election that occurred while he was still missing.

Alaska had a Dem rep for eight years after it was a state. Four years of Pollock, and then Begich won two elections with 56% of the vote. I’d assume he could’ve rode the incumbency for as long as he wanted. Alaska had a Dem governor for a lot of years after that, but it would be very different having a Dem in DC getting earmarks for Dem policies instead of GOP.

Doubtful it would've lasted by the 80's, the oil companies and Anchorage Baptist Temple would've gotten their fingers on someone by then.
 
When my wife was legislative liaison for Daniel Akaka (D-HI), Don Young told her at an appropriations briefing that she, personally, would not be welcome in his state in an official capacity again after she rebutted a lie he told.

Have fun in hell, fuck boy.

Sadly, that kind of s- was why Don Young always got re-elected.
