Kurt Vonnegut, dead at 84
One might as well look for diamond tiaras in the gutter as rewards and punishments in life that are fair.
I don't know why that passage has hung with me so long. Staring at it, the sentence is not particularly insightful. I think I enjoy it because it captures a part of Vonnegut's spark -- that life can really suck. But don't stop laughing at it.
This traditional bit covers appropriate ground. BBC version.
Spot and Atrios share their thoughts. The best tribute I've read so far is here.
