    I guess they could've used an exclamation point. That would've been worse.

    Unfortunately for him, St. Peter is actually a gangly British guy with glasses.

    There's a high school coach in Richmond who looks JUST LIKE George Jefferson. Still coaching today. I mean, just like him. I used to love covering his games because every time he'd scrunch up his face and chew out a ref, half the stands would start yelling "WEEZY! WEEZY! WEEZY!"

    Why? Most every obit mentions the spouse and kids/grandkids/whatever. This time, there were none, which I found interesting.
