1237-1-photo1.jpgI am obsessed with the life of Mickey Rooney and why it has lasted as long as it has. Whenever a celebrity death is announced I’m sure The Roon can’t be far behind, because it always happens in 3’s. With the recent passing of my friend Charlton Heston, The Roon better be careful over the next few days.

He’s been alive for 31,973 days as of this writing. That’s longer than John Lennon, Kurt Cobain, and Steve McQueen. I’d trade a Lennon for a Roon.

Sorry Mickey.
