Re: Kurt Vonnegut has died
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] Liked the guy a lot, but aside from Cat's Cradle, all I read of his were essays and the odd short story, and some interviews. Still had to love him, though. Shame he's gone. [/ QUOTE ] You should read more of his books they all tie together real nicely. At a bare minimum read "Sirens of Titan" and "Slaughterhouse Five". [/ QUOTE ] Cats Cradle as well... but really read them all. Well worth it...

Re: Kurt Vonnegut has died
One of the titans of twentieth-century literature, and one of the 10 greatest authors the United States has ever produced. I have every single one of his books, and what better time than now to reread them all? A sad day for all who ever came across the work if this cynical, humorous, sometimes caustic, but yet always gentle and profound man. RIP Kurt. I love your books, and I'll miss you.

Re: Kurt Vonnegut has died
Vonnegut was the nuts, and absolutely wrecked his Daily Show appearance. Peace out.

Re: Kurt Vonnegut has died
On the subject of Vonnegut art, my Stars avatar is the drawing of his bunghole from Breakfast of Champions. He was a crotchety old dude, but he was entertaining as hell, and I'm bummed out that he's dead.
