3. Rush a druggie
You're right. It's not funny. Rush is indeed an addict and is probably going through some WAY tough times right now. Withdrawal from pain killers is right up there with giving up heroin, or so I've heard. I've always thought that Rush was a pretty pathetic character. A lonely fat man---kind of a tragic figure, like that old Steve Martin routine from the '70s where he imagines Dick Nixon, post-resignation, walking along the empty beach with a metal detector, trying to fill all that empty time. (Hilarious bit, by the way.) My point is, I feel I need to have some compassion for Rush as a fellow human. Then again, if he comes back bigger and more popular than ever, I'll be annoyed as hell. But seriously? I don't see that happening. I think this turkey's goose is cooked.
