RIP Harry Conick Jr. :-(
 

I know, he was no Frank Sinatra, but he was definitely a great musician anyway.

NEW ORLEANS—According to a statement released by the New Orleans Police Department, a piano fire claimed the life of celebrated singer Harry Connick, Jr. late Tuesday night. Witnesses on the scene said Connick was in the midst of a particularly jaunty rendition of "S'wonderful" when the piano—which had been inspected just two weeks prior to the incident—suddenly burst into flames. "The burning lacquer just adhered to his skin like napalm," friend and witness Jamie Walters said. "Then the blaze got hotter, and the piano wires began to snap, cutting into his hands, arms, and face like steel razor whips. We tried to pull him away from there, but he kept running back to finish the song." Connick was 43.


Way WAY too young IMHO.

Not everywhere - April 1st here right now and has been for 12 hours :2 cents: The earth doesn't rotate on its axis around the USA you know.

April 1 is one hell of a day

Telling an American that is like trying to convince a dead person to get up and take a walk!

That'll teach him for buying a second hand piano off Steve Lightspeed

Shocking news - that someone would believe thee. That's right, I said 'thee' mofo. haha!

you are in florida. it ain't the first yet. stop being a douche.

After the debacle of 2001 followed by the one in 2002 on GFY I made it a personal tradition to avoid this board on April 1st.

Thanks for the reminder to keep that tradition alive.

The Onion used to be funny. Now its just stupid. They're treading water and ran out of original ideas years ago.

Maybe they can hire P.J. O'Rourke to inject some intelligence into their failed satire.
