Ted Kennedy, Going Out Strong
"As recently as a few days ago, Mr. Kennedy was still digging into big bowls of mocha chip and butter crunch ice creams, all smushed together (as he liked it). He and his wife, Vicki, had been watching every James Bond movie and episode of 24 on DVD." [New York Times]

I guess those were some of those "what difference does it make " occasions.

Man, I hope he wasn't watching "On Her Majesty's Secret Service" when he passed. Worst James Bond ever.
But James Bond. Awesome.

I think my last bites on earth would definitely include Brigham's Mocha Chip too. There is simply nothing better.
RIP Ted.

I thought the ice cream was nice, particularly for someone who had to "watch" his weight for his lifetime. No point in not eating whatever he wanted. But I'm pretty sure I won't be voluntarily watching James Bond movies or 24 in my last few days or weeks.
