Kurt Vonnegut Documentary

submitted by Fedquip

1 decade 7 years 7 months 2 weeks ago

I see Choggie already made news of Vonnegut's death, but I see no reason not to have a second thread, especially with this excellent documentary titled "Deadeye Dick". I can also direct you to my blog where I posted a video of Vonnegut's Daily Show appearance from September 2005.

There is also on the blog is a nifty graph that shows how much news coverage Vonnegut's death is getting compared to Anna Nicole Smith (she died over a month ago) It's food for thought.

Part 2, Part 3, Part 4, Part 5, Part 6,Part 7,Part 8
