I'm aware of his work now that I clicked that link. It always surprises me how these wealthy people seem to die young of things that doctors can test for and prevent.

NOOOOOOO!!!!!!!! Weird, I was helping my buddy put together some furniture tonight and we had one the 80's music TV station on in the background. "Don't You Forget About Me" came on which lead to about an hour's worth of Breakfast Club quotes.

Man, what a bummer. I've been so busy today, I haven't had time to even think straight (especially with a random Thursday hangover). First I've heard about this.

John Hughes movies are great.

You mess with the bull, you get the horns!!

RIP Mr. Hughes.
