Ever find out someone died, but not right away, like years down the line?
I just found out today that mitch hedberg died. I know I am late, really late, but I don't ever remember hearing anything about that. And it really took me back. He was my favorite comedian. I really do love comedy, just I didn't know that these people had websites and stuff. It just never occurred to me to check. The only reason I had found out is because, I was researching something about pringles and boom I tagged his link in that article and then when the wikipedia page for him showed up it gave a death date and that freaked me out. I was taken back. I just didn't know, and I kind of feel bad for it. Somehow like I should have known, but not once do I remember hearing anything about him. Mind you I was very busy last year, with gaming and what not, I'm retired now, but back then I didn't know anything really, I just spent so much time working at that, that I didn't have time for current events. Unless the eeked into conversation. Either way I feel a little sad for not have knowing. It just kind of get's underneath your skin, a little bit. He really was a great comic, and I read the article on entertainment weekly online, and that was a really nice piece, but it's just sad how he went. This had happened to me once before, I watched the CROW the first time a couple of years ago, and it was only a few months after that, did I find out that brandon lee, the main character, had passed away during the shooting of the movie. I think it's just strange how that happens, you become aware of something great, and then you find out it no longer exists.
