RIP Ozzy Osbourne

He’s one of those guys I was amazed made it to middle age, much less his 70s. Or some of him did, anyway. My SIL is a massive Ozzy fan. I need to check on her to see if she is ok.
 
I didn't really care for his music, but I had plenty of classmates and friends who did and remember him well from my high school days. I just laugh now at the controversies about him biting off a bat's head and supposedly being a Satan worshipper (he wasn't) and all that. I'm not a fan of reality shows, but I did watch his and it was pretty damn funny. I thought it was funny (and quite touching) that his best friend on the show was clean-living Pat Boone who lived next-door to him for awhile, and that he hated his new neighbors who replaced Boone, who were (if I remember correctly) heavy metal fans who partied all night. Ozzy in one episode threw garbage into their yard for keeping him awake, which was hilarious. He seemed like a pretty cool and colorful guy who made the world a more interesting place. RIP.
