| 0:00.0 | In many respects, Twitter is a cesspool that should be shut down and hurled into outer space, |
| 0:07.3 | but in some ways Twitter can be very beneficial. I came across on Twitter yesterday, the best |
| 0:12.5 | obituary that I have ever read in my life, Randall Bunky Jacobs, and I'm just going to give you |
| 0:18.6 | a little flavor of it here. Randall Jacobs of Phoenix died at age 65, having lived a life that would have sent a lesser man to his grave decades earlier. His friends called him R.J. But to his family, he was Uncle Bunky, aka the Bunkster. He told his last joke, which cannot be printed here on May 4, 2020. Go on to read the rest of it. We've got it posted on our |
| 0:39.2 | Twitter page. And as the day went on, I became aware that his nephew, Chris Santa Maria, |
| 0:44.2 | wrote this obituary. Again, it is excellent. I encourage you to read the whole thing. |
| 0:48.3 | And his nephew shared one of his Uncle Bunky's favorite Facebook post. It turns out Big Cat that Uncle Bunky was a |
| 0:55.9 | big Broncos fan. So he pointed out in this post, why do Broncos fans wear orange? They can |

| 1:11.5 | at the Home Depot. And sources close to me tell me that the Broncos are aware of Uncle Bunky |
| 1:17.8 | and we'll be making contact with the family to do something nice for the man who passed away |
| 1:22.4 | recently. But it really is. It's, you know, we see thousands of obituaries over the course of our lifetime. |
| 1:28.9 | And there are some that stand out. |
| 1:30.3 | This one to me stood out more than any other. |
| 1:32.2 | So it was a great tribute to a man who apparently had a life well lived. |
| 1:36.6 | And as also mentioned here, he burned the candle and whatever else was handy at both ends, Big Cat. |
| 1:42.8 | I like the nickname Uncle Bunky as well. |
| 1:45.2 | That's a great one. |
| 1:46.6 | I had not seen that. |
| 1:47.7 | So no snark or sarcasm for me. |
| 1:50.5 | That's just a cool little thing that, and you're right, the internet is a cesspool, but |
