Dolly, I remember Common Tator very well.
Can’t believe it is going to be seven years later this month that he left us.
Many newer Freepers are not aware that there is a Freeper Memorial Wall here:

Lots of solid folks there now.
We must make America great again for them as well.
Wow, many familiar names. especially kayak. Sad...
Oh, how sad — the Memorial Wall page. I didn’t know it existed. Saw Tony Snow and Breitbart. Miss them so!
Thank you for that link. I didn’t know about the memorial wall.
A lot of Freepers there that I remember well.
Put a tear in my eye.
common tutor and I were “an item” for some time.. I respected his intellect and his drive.. but like many other high performing people, this often does not make for good relationships He was very hurt and angry when I would not marry him & broke off the connections... including our collaboration on a book. we remained in close contact and respected friends til his death and I was his confidant during his last days. I attended his funeral and was so sad when there were only about 10 people present. He had a way to turn people off.. big time. I have returned to his grave in Chillicothe several times since.. a nice site on a ridge overlooking the city. As a end of life chaplain there are a lot of stories here.. maybe I will tell and publish them eventually - maybe not. They will just emerge into what Jung feels is the communal “whatever”
Thanks for posting the wall link. Looked thru it and I see that it was four years ago today:
In Memoriam: Andrew Breitbart (1969-2012)

I never knew about the wall either.
One thing that struck me was that many of us die young. That’s a damn shame.
Amen, exit.
Hey, guys.....if y’all can give Trump an assist down here....
