| | rantnrave:// BLAKE KRIKORIAN, the founder of SLINGBOX, passed away August 3, 2016. He was a unique man. Full of life. Loved his family and his friends. An inventor and tinkerer. An innovator who loved underdogs. He lived for THE BIG LEBOWSKI. He loved SOUTH PARK and STEP BROTHERS. Lived to surf. Was obsessed with the number 37. I miss him every day. On the 2nd anniversary of his death, I want to make sure my best friend's life is not forgotten. Many people that read REDEF knew Blake. And those that didn't, I wish they had. He was that special. This is how I remembered him at his memorial service. Today I celebrate him. And I'm listening to some of his favorite songs… Happy Birthday to BILL HOLMES, FABRICE GRINDA, ROBERT PRISAMENT, PERRY TURCOTTE, TONY KADILLAK, JAMES PROUD, and LAURIE YOLER. | | | - Jason Hirschhorn, curator |
