I vividly recall exactly where I was and what I was doing when I read he died. I communicated with Terry from time to time and was a devout reader of his site from 2000 on. Not a day goes by that I don’t miss his commentary and…(Reichwing flying) monkey bashing.

Bart was the best. Full stop.

Two shots of Chinaco 🥃🥃 Añejo in memory of Bart.
