Screw that. I am putting my flag at half-mast right now, and leaving it there.
As I recall, they were at half-mast for a while when Fat Teddy went down.

“Insufferable prick.”
I couldn’t have said it better myself and I am really good at insulting but accurate descriptions of, well, insufferable pricks.

In all fairness, that image appears to be reversed. Look at all the other people — their left hands are over their hearts.

Three days. That is shameful. It was to commemorate the duration of his hangovers.
