Sad piece of news. I translated one of his articles (published in WSC # 292, a brilliant piece) into French last year:

I realize I could never fill the cleats of my Brother, but so many of you were hoping to see another Monday morning quiz, I thought I’d at least try in his behalf;
1. Just how important do you have to be to go from being murdered to being assassinated? What is the cutoff?
2. Who’s brilliant idea was it to put the letter “S” in the word lisp?
3. If money doesn’t grow on trees, why do banks have branches?
4. If a person with multiple personality disorder is threatening suicide, is it really a hostage situation?
5. What if the hokey pokey IS what it is all about?
6. Who was the first person to see an egg come out of a chickens but and think, “Let’s eat that!”
7. Why are they called apartments when they are really jammed so close together?
8. Why do baseball managers dress in the uniforms of the players? Do we really think Tommy Lasorda is going to be called in at shortstop?
9. If life keeps giving you melons, you may be dyslexic! (Not really a question, in homage to #9)
10. If con is the opposite of pro, what does that make Congress?

Welcome, slug.

You might want to put this quiz - or a link to it - in the World forum. People don't often venture this far down the page. We're very set in our ways.

Question 1 deserves an answer. Mine is "Ooh, I dunno." Somebody else will know, though. Somebody else will also know, only different. Then we'll pick sides, and it's all on. Yay!

Hope you can stick around.

Thanks slug.
