The Rocket Report

I somehow missed the news item when former Saturday Night Live cast member Charles Rocket was found dead on October 7 but I saw the reports today that his death has been ruled a suicide. What a sad ending for a man who — and this compounds the sadness — will probably only be remembered for being on SNL during a season everyone hated and for uttering the "f" word on live TV. This article provides a long and compassionate view of the man.
