That Jack Daniel lived proves there are gods and they are among us

For a time, Jack added the following to the signature block on his e-mails: "R.I.P. Max Roach, genius, percussionist, civil rights leader, teacher, mentor, innovator & epic hero. That Max Roach lived proves there are gods and they are among us."

While I'm sure he would cringe to have me write this, "that Jack Daniel lived proves there are gods and they are among us."

The world is a much poorer place for his absence.
