They didn’t even make an effort to hide the fact that the “From” mail was an AOL account.

I guess I shouldn’t be surprised. Look at all the idiots that voted Obama.

Last night I sat here and heard the AC compressor unit stop. I ran to the garage to see if the breaker had tripped, but it had not.

it stopped because it was cool, and it didn’t need to run anymore.

nice.

Six years ago, week before last, Acidman passed away. I’d forgotten it was the end of June, one of my trips through my bloglist took me there and reminded me.

Love him or hate him, there wasn’t anyone like him. I aspire to be that big a pain in the ass, but as a general rule, he was the unequalled master. A comment from him warmed you all over, to have the imprimatur of his words. A post about you or that refers to you(The link is broken but here’s the original post he linked to) was downright amazing.

We miss you, Acidman. Hope wherever you are the beer is cold, the broads are hot, and the guitars are all CF Martin dreadnoughts.
