First Kurt Vonnegut now Don Ho

Don Ho dead at age 76.

Actually I don't care about Don Ho. Kurt Vonnegut was a definitely a one of a kind cranky-compassionate genius.

I went on a Vonnegut binge after college and thought about how sad all his characters were, and I didn't realize until much later, how hope he was about the individual human condition in the face of a suicidal species.

So in tribute. Here is Don Ho covering Peter Gabriel's "Shock the Monkey"
