I was hoping we would have more time to enjoy his wit and wisdom. The world is a poorer place without him in it.

I'm saddened to read of Jim's passing. I always enjoyed his posts. May he rest in peace and his family find comfort.

Not minority enough!

Because son, it is what you are supposed to do.

We knew it was coming, but that doesn't soften the blow. I will miss his level commentary and his humor. I agree with SM, the world is a darker place for his absence.

RIP.
