Enron End Run
Enron scandal centerpiece Ken Lay has died in Aspen Colorado according to CBS4 in Denver. The current hypothesis is that a massive heart attack nabbed him. CBS4 indicates that an autopsy will be performed later today in Grand Junction Colorado. Recall that Lay and fellow Enron bigwig Jeffery Skelling were convicted of fraud May 25 of this year. Lay was due to be sentenced this coming October. Exit stage left.
Much as Mr. Lay we found another story of someone who left the planet just shy of the finish line, albeit, Jose Garmendia was actually competing and not cheating.
Reaching wildly this morn we’ve found a way to work in the death of Robbie ‘Rocket’ Watts of the Cosmic Psychos. We like this one for two reasons - first any band named “Cosmic Psychos” just tickles us pink and second (nudge, nudge, wink, wink) we discovered that Robbie Watts joined the Psychos in 1990 for a Butch Vig-produced album ‘Blokes You Can Trust.’
‘Nuff said.
