Sounds like an awful way to go.

And of course, they had to mention this, which we all were thinking anyway.

During Game 6 the 1986 World Series, as a member of the Red Sox, Buckner made a fielding error that helped the Mets go on to win the game. It's considered to be one of the most notable plays in MLB history as the Mets won the championship.

Unfair scapegoat. Sox bullpen melted down. He was injured and shouldn't have even been out there on defense with a lead in the 9th.

Mookie Wilson might have beat him to the bag even if he fielded it cleanly.

Another one many people don't realize is Megyn Kelly as the daughter of Tom Waits.

Apparently he was over 500 lbs recently. Barely over a decade ago he was playing in the NFL.

Mad magazine helped establish sophomoric humor as a staple in my personal repertoire from an early age....

Mad Magazine will vanish from newsstands after 67 years

By Robert McLean and Michelle Lou

(CNN)Once a cultural touchstone, Mad Magazine is halting the publication of new content and vanishing from newsstands.

The seminal humor publication will no longer be available on newsstands after its August issue, according to a person familiar with the matter.

After that, issues will be available only via comic book stores and subscriptions, the source said.

The source indicated that issues after No. 10 of its current volume will reprint earlier material with new covers. However, the magazine will continue to publish its end-of-year special, books and special collections.

The revered satirical publication was founded in 1952 as a comic book. In 1955, it switched to a magazine format.

Former Mad Editor Allie Goertz, who resigned last month, lamented that there will no longer be new content after issue No. 10.
"MAD is an institution with such a rich history," Goertz tweeted. "It informed just about every comedian and writer I (and probably you) look up to."

Abso-fucking-lutely. I’m done pretending to be sad when evil people die. People who make life harder for millions of people. If I could I would piss on his grave.

I get the feeling that he saw that the Amazon and Arctic are burning at the same time and died of happiness.

What a great journalist, and a historian who lived the life!!!

Her father was Hale Boggs, and she had so many stories of politics life in DC before modern transportation, and endless fund-raising ended almost full-time residence in DC for most elected politicians... And, in those days, when she went home it was to Louisiana, which was another amazing place for politics and life!!!

She was one of the major contributors to the high-quality development of NPR's journalism and culture from its earliest days (along with Nina Totenberg, Linda Wertheimer and Susan Stamberg)....

I grew up listening to her and all those women. I miss Bob Edwards' voice, too.
