Random Memorial for Monday 12/19/11

Gone but not forgotten (the speed round): [What a weekend ... too many options ... so just choose the one that resonates most with you from the list ... ]

Kim Jong Il --> with the possible exception of your closest friends and family, you and your blindness to the world around you will not be missed (unless your son is a chip off the old commie bloc, and then we might all become more familiar with the phrase "the devil you know is better than the one you don't).

Bears playoff chances --> it was just 4 few weeks ago (pre-thumb-wound) when everyone was of the opinion that we had a guaranteered spot at least until late January, so our purported place in the playoffs will be missed (and baseball starts in how many days?).

Havel --> you who proved that the pen can indeed be mightier than the sword, you will be missed.

Saab --> oddly placed ignition that made it seem like we were in a small airplane, you will be missed now that you've been given up on by your corporate daddy.

Kobe's marriage --> as, in my opinion, you should have ended after you were raping and pillaging the hotel help years ago, you will not be missed (except, quite possibly, by your children, to whom you must now explain why you can't keep it in your pants ...).

Jon Bon Jovi --> seeing as how it was a twitter hoax today after all, the headlines that would have been bad puns based on your hit songs (surely they can do something with Wanted Dead or Alive, Never Say Goodbye or Livin' on a Prayer), you will be missed (at least until they come out again some later rainy day when you do pass -- for reals ...).

IF ONLY THE NUKES WEREN'T IN THE MIX:
