    Awesome pull.

    "I drank what?"

    I thought they'd finally pulled the plug on this ...

    RIP to a legend.

    Just yesterday it was reported he was bad off, and it didn't last long.

    I've really only seen his WC goals, but an all time great beard.

    He was also an MD and a political activist who lived the George Best lifestyle. And he didn't always drink beer, but when he did, it was Dos Equis

    I had the exact same reaction and even read it, "RIP So-Crates." My second thought was, "Wow, an RIP thread going to a bit actor in 'Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure?' Must be a slow news day."
