We just heard some horrible news, that our good buddy and stalwart wise guru, Kipp Crawford, died last night. He was riding his bike along the side of the road in Portland, OR, and got hit by a car. He didn't make it.

That sort of shit just shouldn't happen, friends. Kipp was an amazing guy- a hell of a drummer, and one of the wisest old souls I've ever met on this here earth. So much wisdom coming out of such a young guy. He wasn't even thirty yet, and now he's gone.

Doesn't seem fair at all.

This next one's for you, Kipp. We'll tip our glasses to ya, and hope you're somewhere cracking jokes, eying good looking women, and enjoying whatever else sent ya.

We'll miss you good buddy. The best way to remember you? In your own words, "The less apt you are to make declarative statements, the less likely you will be to have to retract them."

Amen to that and God speed Kipper
