Back in 95/6/7 Me and Skip used to hang out after work and drink a few, smoke a few and generally unwind. Then I got involved in college,new job, new friends and I kinda forgot about old Skip.
I always said
"I need to call the Skipper one day"
But I never did.
I saw his wife in Publix two weeks ago. She said "You should come over and see Skip, he talks about you all the time"
And the days went by and I didnt do it.
And I didnt do it.
And I didnt do it.

Skip dropped dead yesterday. (age 47)
I just got the news.
15 beers + 60 cigarettes + 6 joints + no excercise every day tends to cause that,but thats beside the point.

I know you guys all have a Skip somewhere.
GO CALL HIM!  NOW!
(I know its late, He wont care,trust me)

Sorry to hear that. I think ill go call up an old buddy now.

Sorry to hear the of the loss of a good friend. One can never have too many.

My condolences, bud.

My condolences tc, buy thanks for the tip.  I'm going through my old phone books as we speak. 9/11 did make me call people I really haven't spoken to in a while, but then a gain that was 10 months ago.
