Real shocker on Kent. Looked like he was in great shape and he's a relatively young guy.
Any word yet on what happened? Sad one. Didn't know him well, but all my encounters with him especially back around the birth of SM were great.

I have no details, not even when he died - but I think last night. I read he was 51. Knew him from our Corvette days. Way to many people have passed in the last few weeks. :(

Funny. I'm checking out this post and TV is on in the backround. Suddenly the volume gets really loud and I hear, "Hi, I'm Billy Mayes here for the Jupiter Jack". :lol:

Vicodin, Valium, and Cocaine! Pharmaceutical Speedball. Maybe it was the coke that made him so loud, and he needed the Valium and Vicodin to bring him down.
