When people who's work I admire and enjoy die, like Florian Schneider, I tend to feel a bit good about it, as to me it's the completion of a lifetime's effort that no longer needs prolonging. I felt that about Lemmy, Lux Interior, Conrad Schnitzler, other people who I think did a good job navigating the shitstream of Life in a satisfactory and certainly entertaining way.
I mean, how long do we want people to live for, anyway? Some get out while the getting's good. That's more luck than I'll ever have.
