The blind teenager Bend Underwod who used echolocation via tongue clicks as seen on this sift died January 09. It was a recurrence of the cancer that took his sight. Hell of a guy, sad to see him go =(

Pretending reincarnation is real doesn't help the situation. Maybe if we continue to advance medicine people won't have to die of curable diseases anymore.

hehe payback on the razors edge! true enough so far .

though bernie mac was the man too.

seemed like a pleasant and focused invididual. extra sad to have recurrence take him... so fucking cruel to destroy everything regained.. ug.

here's to stem cells and nanotech eventually biting a big chunk out of cancer's ass and spitting it in cancer's face. fucking son of a bitch cancer.
