Last night was a TERRIBLE night to announce retirement. The kids were drunk and pissed off. LMAO.

Note to old guys... don't call attention to youraelf on a night when the kids are drunk and pissed off!

Oh no!!
I wasn’t aware he was still alive

From what he said, it could be taken as he is dying and that’s why he’s done. Very sad.

That’s a good point. I will now withdraw my previous sarcasm.
It’s possible you’re right. He does say that it’s a risk every time he goes on which would not seem to be an issue if he’s healthy.

I honestly didn't even consider that either, but if that is the case, hopefully he can laugh about the whole thing. It was terrible timing. Half the comments have had to be removed at this point... so nobody is alone in that regard. I would be laughing all the way out. That's me tho. I'd rather have fun then protest. Just who I am. Some folks think protesting IS fun.

On that note, I watched two documentaries on Prime last night that were pretty good.

1: "What happened to Jack Kerouac?"

2: "Gonzo!" about Hunter Thompson.

I recommend them both. Authentic documentaries with the real people that were there. Not fandom.

Does he have aids ? I always wondered if he was secretly gay.

I doubt he does. There was speculation a few years back that maybe he had cancer due to some sort of scarring on his head when he shaved it bald. Whatever is going on, it’s sad to see. I remember being a little kid and thinking how amazing they were, and now the end of the road is in sight. Life just goes too fast.
