The Irish Bar in Heaven is rocking today with a big Kennedy-style reunion. RIP Teddy. You will be missed.

oh, this was hardly unexpected, but is hitting me with great sadness.

(and matching gladness that my friend with a brain tumor seems to have dodged that particular death sentence.)


I recently read that John Kerry is stepping up as a major negotiator, dealmaker, reconciler, player as ... well, now, the senior senator from Massachusetts. Quite a pair of shoes to fill.

Waaa, I have such a soft spot for Teddy. Ya know, stuff and all.

I expect a few of the family will show up NA. ;)

Godspeed to the "caboose" of the family train. RIP Teddy.

Does Ted get to drink in heaven? Has the family forgiven Kick and does Rosemary have her brain back?

I find it odd that the press refers to Ted as the last surviving brother, since he held that title for 41 years under unusual circumstances. You want a last surviving brother? One word: Zeppo.

That said, despite the fact that my first hard-to-shake childhood impression of him from 1969 was that he was a bad man, it's very sad.

thank you. I was trying hard to find a diplomatic, respectful of the dead way to put that.
