Oh. I hadn't looked at the blog in a long time and didn't see anyone mention that that was posted in this thread. If rumors are true, very sad. I can't tell you how many spam reports I got on KB posts from new members who just didn't get it. He's an institution here.

It's probably because it wasn't immediately obvious, they just saw a list of names, e.g. Kiton jacket, Brioni pants, etc. Most of them probably didn't click on links in signatures. With most WAYWT posts, people actually post pictures of their outfits in the thread. That's why I asked about KB's posts on AAAC, because at the time I couldn't view Blogger.

DIdn't realize KB died. That's very sad. I recall him providing good feedback on some of my first posts here.

As to his blog...kind of annoying the direction is daughter took it with the kitten. Close it with the funeral and that's that.

Seriously, and all of the comments and such she's not even taking the time to addressing.

Has it been confirmed that KB himself died or do we still not know if it was his father? I thought that based on what J posted earlier, KB was still alive.

The kitten makes some sense to me. New life can give hope in the context of death.

Too bad. I was anxiously waiting for the day when a pair of boots made of human skin would appear - "the most exotic hide of all!"

Seriously, RIP to KB. I'll pour some Dom Perignon White Gold Jeroboam on the ground for him this weekend . . . .
