No word if the dead squirrel hairpiece on his head was harmed in the tractor accident

#7  May he rest in peace.

Although, I doubt he will.

And my condolences to his family and friends.

Let us all aspire to redemption through repentance.

#5  I agree. Rolling a Ford N, or being shot whilst leaping from a bedroom window by a jealous husband.... at 73, yes strangely redeeming.

#4  He earned some redemption in my eyes, going out that way - rolling an antique tractor at age 73.

#3  This is a '43 Ford N, or there abouts, similar to the one that the Congressman rolled over. They're pretty low and stable. At 73 years of age, he might not have been nimble enough to jump clear of it. No roll bar.... bad outcome. Rest in peace fella.

#2  Mama always said if you can't say anything nice about someone, don't say anything at all.

But then, she didn't know Traficant.

Buh-bye, jackass.
