One day he's the easiest target for parody on all of TV and a second later he is a great tragic icon. I think I've said it here before, but who among us didn't expect things to turn out this way. My kids loved him and one of my daughter's best friends mourned in a way I've never seen a pre-teen do so. But really, he made a living out of flirting with death and casualizing the risks he was taking. Should we erect a statue of him with the single word IRONY carved at the bottom?
