May 23, 2008 21:25:07 Robert Asprin passed away yesterday, on the 22nd of May 2008. While I don't know whether or not he played D&D he certainly had the heart of a gamer and wrote some of my favorite books of all time. He will be sorely mythed.

Ok before I fly into a panick and burn my house down, is this just something you heard, or do you have a link to some solid info (please god let it just be something you heard).

edit nevermind I googled it and found the info

and don't forget Gygax, he was an author too, man this has been a sucky period.

I thought that one should go without saying. And yes-- it is not a good period.

Poetic, good call.

I still have all my books, just found them and handed them to my 11 year old.

R.I.P. Robert. Hopefully Gary'll share some of the hot women up there with you.
