CNN Hates (Loves?) Abe Vigoda
The #4 most popular article on cnn.com this morning is: Abe Vigoda is Still Alive. I can't tell if it's a "Let's Celebrate Vigoda Living!" article or a "Damn, can you believe he's still alive?" article.
That being said, the article is more popular than news of a dead german zookeeper and a dead cat. It's not as popular as 9 dead Finnish kids.
Oh yeah, I think I also heard something about how the government is going to dump a bunch of cash into our economy and cause inflation to skyrocket, but I, like most CNN readers, were more concerned with Abe Vigoda still being alive.

RIP Tim Russert
I don't know what I'll do Sunday mornings anymore (Church, I guess)
Seriously, Tim Russert was a fantastic journalist. This is a huge loss, especially considering the current state of the media. I do not think there is someone right now who can fill his shoes as a fair, inquisitive, and nonpartisan person who can ask our political leaders the questions that Americans want to ask and get the candid answers that only a man of his honest demeanor and stature of respect can ascertain. I am going to miss him and his contribution to America's perspective of politics.

More Dead People
Dith Pran, Photojournalist and Survivor of the Killing Fields, Dies at 65
He's the dood from the Killing Fields. Good movie, highly recommended by the Scarlett Pimpernel. And it's got Sam Waterston in it.
(Really struggled to try to make my 4 tag minimum on this one)

Fast Food Conspiracy
The Thomas Edison of breakfast sandwiches has died. Notice the Chi-town connection. Woot!
Fitting that I spent Easter morning buying Popeye's. Maybe this was the reason for the 25 minute wait in the drive-thru line.
And by the way, Copeland's got a real restaurant in New Orleans that is pretty good.
