What a coincidance. I was looking at the 100 people most likely to die in 2009 list to see if any of them were dead. He was #1.

Anyway, RIP.

What is with these people kicking the bucket just weeks after they leave their position?  Steve Jobs passed within weeks after leaving Apple and now Andy Rooney just weeks after leaving CBS.  It's like their intuition kicks in.  Here at home, I have an example of this.  My childhood dentist who had been battling cancer for several years retired from his office last spring and then within 2 weeks he was dead.

Anyway, RIP to all three men mentioned in my post.

Well, BushOK, ordinary poors die on the job or just after being laid off (often under a bridge due to violence) all the time, and we don't remark.  The famous or rich aren't really 'working', so they 'like' their 'jobs', and 'do' them until they feel terribly ill.  Of course generally they aren't actually doing anything, of course, just showing up and getting their egos stroked by underlings, sycophants, etc.

Very sad.  Unfortunately, I kinda knew this was his time. Sad

R.I.P.  There is no replacing him.
