    RIP Leonard Cohen

    The man with the golden voice died today. He was 82.



    What a fucked-up week this has been. I am a huge LC fan.
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

    I am embarrassed to say I'm not familiar with his work. Sounds like I really missed something.

    What a troglodyte I am.

    My condolences.

    Here is something special that I watched as a kid.

    Recommended by one of my favorite teachers.

    He was profound and very funny.

    Jump to 30:50, it's a little hairy. ;)
