the man. the myth. the legend..

Saw him there too. Pointed him out to the wife, who'd never heard of him before. "He's famous? Why?" I couldn't actually give her a meaningful answer. "He looks sick, emaciated, like he's got cancer or something." Couldn't really argue with that observation, either.

don't get me wrong. i am all for live and let live as the next person, but seriously, what's the deal. is he just a lucky skinny person or do i need to keep my little brother with the needle problem away from this dude? i saw him making out with a girl at a bus stop once and i'm still perplexed by it.

This just in via @matthickey, Slats sadly passed away this weekend> "He had a bad infection from when he broke his hip in December. His body couldn't fight it."

Capitol Hill will not be the same without you, Slats!
