Prepare to be crushed

Ladies and gentlemen, the human race is now one genius shorter. Author/genius/poet/essayist and all around great guy Kurt Vonnegut died yesterday after suffering from brain damage which he received after falling several weeks prior. Words cannot express the level of admiration I have for this man. His unique vision, word choice, story subjects and overall attitude are not only fun to read but also extremely important lessons in writing 101. He will be greatly missed by all of his friends and fans worldwide. Luckily, we still have his books to guide us through the tough times.
