R.I.P. Natasha Richardson

R.I.P. Milan Stitt

In all seriousness... He was one of the most charismatic and opinionated men i've ever met. He will be sorely missed in this crazy world by the many students and people he inspired in his career and life. For those of you not in the know, as this place in my blog typically shows pop culture icons that have passed, Milan was the head of the playwriting dept. at Carnegie-Mellon as well as a great playwright in his own right.

Here's to you dude, we raise a glass!

Here's to you Jimbo!

My uncle Jim passed away this past Saturday morning. He was a great guy, put up a hard fight against cancer, and he'll be remembered lovingly by all who knew him. I have a few great memories from chilhood where he was that super uncle who could make it all better by just hanging out with you and listening, or some small token he picked up on a whim. I wish we had gotten more time or oportunities to be closer over the years. We're gonna miss ya Jimbo.
