Holy Crap

Jerry Falwell dead at 73.

If you know me at all, you know how I feel about this man and his words and his work. But that doesn't matter for the moment. A man is dead. May he find whatever rest he sought.

Mr. Falwell, at this point you will find out if you were right. For your sake, good luck.

You're a better person than I. I can give him no sympathy at all.

As one of the millions of people whose lives he spent his entire career trying to destroy, I have to say fuck sympathy. I'm quite glad he's dead. His death makes today better, because he's one less powerful and influential person trying to make millions of lives, including mine, much, much worse.

Tom is obviously a better person than I am. I cheered and did the happy dance.

At work. In a customer's car. (Although I did have the sense to not explain to the customer why I was so happy when I gave them their car back!)
