Another sad day.

Not too many people die in Iowa. Since murder is probably about 80% ruled out with no signs of foul play, I wonder if it was a drug overdose? Or maybe he just passed. I've known a healthy 25 year old that never woke up, and they never found the cause of death.

Slipknot is in my top 10 favorite bands, they'll never be the same :| I'm proud to have seen them live twice now.
