Damn, you know I banned this guy then clean forgot about him:
Vincenzo 'Vinnie' Ricardo was the proverbial tree that fell in the forest: No one knew.From what police in Hampton Bays, N.Y., can determine, the 70-year-old was sitting alone watching TV in his two-story home when he died.
That was more than a year ago, and when workers were summoned to his house last week after a report that freezing temperatures had caused the home's pipes to burst, they found Ricardo's mummified body still sitting on the couch, the TV still on.
I didn't really. This is just how I deal with my sadness.
Vinnie the TV Man with the coroner
Whaaaaa? How the heck does something like that happen and no one notice?

They usually at least show up for elections.
