For some reason the rebelscum search feature is giving ZERO results for searches containing the words R.I.P. or RIP.

Odd...

Was he Ray Krebs, Jock's illegitmate eldest son, or did he play Pam Ewing's brother.... can't remember the first name, but surnamed Barnes and ran numerous oil companies that went up against Ewing Oil, eventually became a congressman or something, right?
So, do we count Arafat as a celebrity, and if so, does that mean we're due one more death in the next week?
