Rowdy Roddy Piper, RIP

Well damn, no link but just saw on the news crawls that Roddy Piper (real name Patrick Toombs) passed away. Saw him on a WWE retrospective not long ango and didn't know that he'd battled cancer.

Guess he really did run out of bubblegum.  =|

Saw Roddy Piper a few times when I ran camera at Portland Wrestling matches for KPTV years back.
It was kind of fun watching him in "They Live" despite the fact he wasn't much of an actor.
RIP Mr. Piper.

If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

Never watched WWE, but he seemed like a nice guy in Saints Row 4. He helps you beat up Vice President Keith David.

RIP, dude.
