RIP, R.A.W.

Sad news has filtered through the ether: Robert Anton Wilson — author, visionary, psychonaut, skeptic and cosmic prankster — has passed away.

Thanks to Max for the tip.

R.A.W. was one of my main dudes; hope his bardo-hopping goes smoothly.

Here’s mine:The Steve Urkle Abortion CircleIt came to me in a dream. Maybe it’s a support group for women who were impregnated by the “smooth” version of Urkle only to realize that it was really urkle.

Davezee will tell anyone who asks about his brilliant concept for a tribute band: Simon and Gwarfunkel. I need to start keeping a fake-band-name list, dammit. I want to be remembered upon my demise for coming up with The Raging Whore Moans. (riot grrrl…)
