RIP Isaac Hayes
MEMPHIS, TN (WMC-TV) - Musician Isaac Hayes died early Sunday morning, according to Shelby County Sheriff's Department spokesperson Steve Shular.

A Shelby County sheriff's deputy responded to Hayes' home after his wife found him on the floor near a treadmill inside his home.

Hayes was taken to Baptist East Hospital in Memphis, where he was pronounced dead at 2:08am.

Deputies with the Shelby County Sheriff's Department are continuing their investigation into Hayes' death, but they believe no foul play was involved.

Or, how does that work exactly?

I thought $cientologists were able to avoid death.

Huh, you learn something new everyday.

Good night, funny man.

13. I don't know anything about Scientology, but I'm guessing
if they think they can avoid death then it must be by moving to a higher dimension (or something like that).

16. Well, he's dead, and that's as old as you can get . . .
before that, however, he was 65.

21. Hot Buttered Soul, a revelation for me. A CIA recruiter in Nairobi Kenya
was the one that turned me onto Isaac Hayes. I've been a fan since then.

He was a man's man.

24. Thank You, Isaac!
That Stax Music was thick, hot and greasy. You deserved everything you got from "Shaft" on out (which is how most of the world will remember you), but this white boy will NEVER forget the songs you wrote and the hot licks you got out of that piano on them Stax tunes.

May you now rest in eternal splendor and may the band always be HOT and BUTTERED behind you.
