"We're all already dead! But that's not important right now!"

wynnwhy has died.

Most of you who are on my flist who knew him have already found out from someone else; moontyger tried to call me at school to let me know when she found out, but of course my cell phone gets no reception in my classroom. (That's actually probably a minor blessing, as if I'd found that out right after I'd had a fight with my technical boss, I just wouldn't have stopped crying.)

I didn't know Wynn as well as some; for me, he was a fellow Ricie, a fellow Toreador in the Rice game, a damned good host, and all-around cool guy. His death will be a huge loss to the Rice alum community in Houston. But what I remember most are the things he did for the Rice VLARP - hosting a party at his place, working e-mail lists, taking over from EJ when he ditched the clan, playing his secondary character with maniacal gusto.

Getting the waitress's attention at IJump by waving his foot above his head. "Excuse me, the man in the Cat in the Hat socks would like some more coffee!"

Downing the Spouse's can of Grass Jelly Drink.

"What am I going to to with my enormous penis now?"

Rest in Peace, Wynn. You are well remembered.
