"As a blogger, Chez Pazienza is filled with outrage, passion and insight -- delivered with a distinctive point of view, a wicked sense of humor, and a two-fisted style of prose. In Dead Star Twilight, he turns all these on himself -- and produces a fierce, funny, disturbing, but ultimately uplifting memoir. This is the book A Million Little Pieces dreamed of being."

Godspeed, Snowman. Godspeed.
Let's hope Jerry is still keeping the wheels a spinnin and the beavers grinnin in the great hereafter.
When you're hot you're hot. When you're not you're not, in fact, you may be stone cold dead.
Ah well, another z-lister bites it taking a short resume of entertainment fluff with him.
"Hang on to your ass Fred!"
RIP Snowman.
this is a very sad day. i guess god needed another gear jammer. you will be missed snowman.
"what's texas county mounty doing in arkansas?"
shit i always thought he was much more charming than burt. rip, jerry.
b80vin, if you're talking about the smattering of movies he leaves us with, you're right. He was however a brilliant guitarist, multiple grammy winner, and an original entertainer. East Bound and Down was but one of his hits.
Also, let us not forget, his star was bright enough at one point to be on Scooby Doo. That honor didn't go to just anyone.
RIP Jerry
Okay -- this one I had to leave a comment on... I'm so depressed!
Aw, I'm honored. Thanks for stopping by, Rand.
East bound and down.
I am sure God is setting up the rocket chair for the snowman.
Stephen, I'm not going to argue the "brilliant" guitarist thesis, other than to say, Andre Segovia. But if Buck Owens can be forgotten Reed can be forgettable, and I doubt that in 20 years people will be going to music stores looking for the lost work of Jerry Reed.
I'm not saying the world is better off without him, I'm saying it's no different.
Snowman: Hey Bandit. Me an' Fred got a question.
Bandit: What you an' Fred want?
Snowman: How come we's doin' this?
Bandit: Why d'you ask?
Snowman: Well they said it ain't never been done before.
Bandit: W'hell thats the reason, son.
Snowman: [shrugs] That's good with Fred.
Bandit: [laughing] Ten-four
Snowman: [to Fred] He about as crazy as you are ugly!
And watch out for Amos Moses!!!
If we're doing quotes:
"What that woman got on... her mind!"
"10-4"
"Big... Enos... Burdette... B-U-R... B-E-R..."
"Barrel 'o Monkey Nuts."
: )
Thank you very much pretty lady!
