Me: "George Carlin died."

The Wife: "What!?  What of?"

Me: "Don't know."

The Wife: "Google it!"

[Several keystrokes later]

Me: "Heart failure."

The Wife: "Was he with a girl?"

Me: "I don't know."

The Wife: "Was he with a guy?"

No better tribute.

Rory Root, owner of Comic Relief ("the Comic Book Store") in Berkeley, CA, and an acquaintance of more than 30 years, died today.  I don't have a lot of info right now, but will update if necessary with memorial, services, etc.
