    See, everyone loved that song. “Linger” was the one I loved. It was a card-carrying hit single with all the trimmings.

    I agree. Linger was far better, and perfectly encapsulated the music vibe of the 90s.

    I was not on JRE, sadly, but Shirley Mason from Garbage was. Same era and vibe.

    To be clear, Shirley is fine. Dolores is dead.

    Yup, perfectly walked the line between not quite mainstream, not quite edgy enough for hipster alternative. Knowing the lyrics to that song got me laid once. Cheers Dolores.

    Chef Paul was the greatest kitchen man. He’s been sick for years, I’m amazed how versatile he was. But foodies lost their Jesus today.

    Not just a rockstar of modern French cuisine, he was The Godfather of it. A big loss.

    Thanks for the ansible.

    Warren Miller died. Shitty.

    Back in the day I had a friend who was a skier who was on call with Warren to go heli-skiing around Whistler at a moment’s notice.

    Dude got paid to wait to go skiing.

    Yeah... he got laid a lot.

    He certainly didn’t die young, but within weeks we lost the two most landmark recreational sports filmmakers ever: Bruce Brown (Endless Summer) and Warren Miller. Their films basically changed society and how people live, that’s how skillful they were. They turned sports into cultural phenomenon.

    The founder of IKEA has died. His casket will arrive in a flat box in approximately 4-5 business days and will take roughly 17 hours and ALL OF THE CURSE WORDS to assemble.
