So It Goes, Kurt Vonnegut

Kurt Vonnegut passed away at the age of Eight-Four.
Vonnegut's amusing cynicism of human behaviour and imagination inspires me greatly, not only with my drawings and writing but when just generally thinking about life.
As a self described Humanist, therefore Atheist, Vonnegut once gave a eulogy for a fellow Humanist joking, "He's in heaven now". I'm sure Kurt would've made this comment with his own mortality in mind and appreciated the joke a second time round.
This obituary pretty much sums up Vonnegut's writing career and life.
