The Ramones

Sad news as Johnny Ramone passed away last night.

When I first heard about it, I thought, "Wow, it's sad that all those brothers died so recently." Then I read the entire article and found out that they weren't related, and I felt a bit stupid.

Later in the day, I mentioned this fact to a friend of mine. This friend didn't know they were not related or that he had died. I said, "I had always assumed they were brothers too!" So I felt better. Until the friend reminded me that "assume makes an ass out of you and me."

I feel like I should have seen that one coming.
