John Hughes 1950-2009

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

This may be off topic but I can not help but to post about the passing of John Hughes today. They say he defined a generation and he sure nailed mine and created a whole world that I wanted to live in. He wrote some of the greatest films of all time, from the first three National Lampoons Vacation films to Great OutDoors, Pretty in pink, Breakfast Club, 16 candles and the list goes on. His films and their soundtrack have been a huge part of my life and I know we all will miss him. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family.
