I had a premonition Breitbart would die

When I saw him on the Turks with Cenk a couple weeks back, he looked to me like a very angry, uptight man. You could see the hatred boiling in him, right in his eyes. He looked like a very tortured, mentally unstable soul. I got the feeling, at that very minute, that he would be dead soon. Either of a heart attack or by his own hand.

Just tossing that out there, it was pretty surreal when I logged on and saw the news.

and my guess is that he's one of the guys who knew so much more than the rest of us mere mortals that lifestyle changing advice from his doctors went unheeded.

My sympathy goes to his wife and four children. Losing someone suddenly is tough.

And since I have nothing good to say about him, that's all I'll say.

All men have an emotion to kill; when they strongly dislike some one they involuntarily wish he was dead. I have never killed any one, but I have read some obituary notices with great satisfaction.
Note: That's from Darrow's autobiography, The Story of My Life.

Though they may die rather quickly from a stroke or heart attack.

Yep, that someday, some time in the future - in LESS THAN 200 years time - I, Taverner, yours truly, would die
