john hughes fans: wellknowwhenwegetthere.blogspot.com
there's a really great post by john hughes' former pen pal.
i always want to read into peoples writing. did he know this was how he'd go out? was this something he thought about? or was he just writing to the character?
i learned last year that heart attacks happen. but i think there is more to be celebrated here than mourned. ferris bueller remains in my top 10 all-time movies and the breakfast club will always be awesome. so thank you john hughes. you will be missed.

In many ways, I think that John Hughes was a bigger part of my childhood than Michael Jackson was. Hughes didn't celebrate the star quarterbacks, rock stars or millionaire celebrities...he celebrated ME. He celebrated nerd, the geek, the quirky and uncomfortable in his skin teenager.
Sigh. Miley Cyrus and the Jonas Brothers can kiss my ass. Ferris Beuller's Day Off and Weird Science kill them any day. Any time.
