Kurt Vonnegut has left the building

I'm sad. Even though I really didn't read that much by him, everything I did read resounded and made me laugh. He's direct, says it like it is, emphasizes the real human tragedy of it all, and then laughs because really, life is so ridiculous that what else can you do but laugh...

Here is a really excellent reflection on the man.

You might also try Google Video or You Tube to see some videos of him. I saw him on The Daily Show last year and was terribly entertained and enlightened.
