Got the sad news this morning . . . Bobby O' Connor died last night. This article is not great (in their hurry to get it out, they obviously didn't do a good job fact-checking; Bobby's sister-in-law's last name is wrong) but I guess it's hard to write about something so sad. I'm glad not to be in Pittsburgh; apparently the television media is being pretty annoying about the whole thing.

Anyway, very sad news, and my thoughts are with O'Connor's family.

As an aside: the new mayor of Pittsburgh is younger than I am. That doesn't seem right, not least of all because Bobby didn't even get to be mayor for an entire year. He should have had more time.
