Blogosphere a Little Emptier Today

I'm sad to report that Rob at Gut Rumbles passed away on Monday of this week. This man never had a thought that didn't make it to his very popular Southern fried blog in the most foul language he could muster. But the S.O.B. was funny and he could make a compelling story out of a trip to the bathroom. As a very dear friend of mine says, "He cut a wide swath."

Velociman wrote a fitting eulogy for Rob. I'm sorry that I never met Rob in person. I love words and he loved to make up words. As far as I'm concerned, Rob introduced the word "f**ktard" to the blogosphere. I'm going to miss his onery voice and all the wonderful, anti-PC, offensive gems he made up. May you safely "pass over the river and rest under the shade of the trees," Acidman!

Chris Muir has a fitting tribute in the June 27 cartoon.
