Jack Henry Abbott committed suicide in his cell. He was found yesterday, apparently, but I guess it didn't hit the wires until today. I would've figured someone would have mentioned it here since Mailer was a topic of interest just a few days ago.

I don't know about you, but I'm going to have a drink over the death of that sociopath.
YeeHAWWW!!!
(and hope that arrogant, self-righteous celebs learn that just because some criminal can write a one-off book doesn't mean that they're acceptable in society.)
