poetic justice for PacKKKer

A forgettable person dies the same day as two 27 club icons, Jones and Morrison, that nobody will forget and will be loved and admired for generations.

Can't say the same for this scumbag. He's crying but not with the saints like in that Billy Joel classic. Good riddance.

Re: poetic justice for PacKKKer

To make matters worse, outside of Utah and heavily Mormon areas, most people have no clue who Packer was. He's not important enough to get a tiny mention of the front page, as the only section he's mentioned in is the obituary section which isn't even in the front section, but a different part of the newspaper.

Re: poetic justice for PacKKKer

On the headline for the article about his death today in my local Midwest newspaper the headline was "High-ranking Mormon leader Boyd Parker Dies at Age 90." (They at least spelled his name correctly in the article.) The man who would be king and most people have never even heard of him.

I've only heard of him from reading RfM. (n/t)

Re: poetic justice for PacKKKer

A haiku poem?

No one knows of him
No mention in the headlines
No one really cares

LGBT folks
Might breathe a sigh of relief
Now that he is gone

Too bad that Cheryl
Didn’t use the garden hose
To dampen him down
