Life goes on.
"A man becomes preeminent, he's expected to have enthusiasms.
Enthusiasms...
Enthusiasms...
What are mine? What draws my admiration? What is that which gives me joy?."
- Dames!
- Boozin'!
"Baseball!"
"A man...
A man stands alone at the plate.
This is the time for what?
For individual achievement.
There he stands alone. But in the field, what?
PART OF A TEAM. Teamwork...
Looks, throws, catches, hustles. Part of one big team.
Bats himself the live-long day, Babe Ruth, Ty Cobb, and so on.
But if he don't field...what is he? You follow me?
No one.
Sunny day, the stands are full of fans. What does he have to say?.
I'm goin' out there for myself.
But...l get nowhere...unless the team wins."
- Team!
- Team.
Rest in peace, Direct Current.

Ah, so that is how the tragedy occured. The truth is out.

It was actually after the fact, AM. We were very disappointed to hear Unique was shutting his blog down.

There's no "we" in "crushed skull" either. Note to self: Do NOT cross Phil when he's high on cocaine and/or comet dust.
You see, Phil's got a threshold. A threshold for the amount of blog retirement he'll take. And right now he's a race car and he's in the red. And if I learned anything from our dinner party that night, it's that it's fuckin' dangerous to have a race car in the fuckin' red. It could blow.

I want this guy dead! I want his family dead! I want his house burned to the ground! I want to go there in the middle of the night and piss on his ashes! 0:) Sorry..I got caught up in the moment.

That was hot, WC. You've inadvertently stumbled upon one of the Guvna's fetishes: women that want me dead.

It's amazing how cameras are around at the time of the hit. I didn't think it was a good idea to document such things like that. How will you avoid arrest now?

We control the media, Steve.
You think that's random "traffic" you're reporting on?.....hmm.

I couldn't have been whacked by a nicer bunch.

That was you?
I remember reporting on an incident on the Vine Street Expressway on a multi-car pileup caused by 5 men with pipes running around the road, but I thought it was a ruse.
Do me a favor... I'm on the air next on March 5th. Could you whip me up a bigger accident involving a truck fire next time? I want something exciting to talk about.

Now I know who to turn to if I ever have to shut down...
