  This reminds me of something my sister said recently <br>&quot;The funniest way to be a centrist isn&apos;t to be middling in all opinions, it&apos;s to be so extremely opinionated in so many directions that no one can pinpoint you&quot;

  As the unofficial patron saint of tomfoolery &amp; shenanigans, it seems appropriate that he would pass away on April Fool&apos;s Day. Rest in peace, you ridiculous man

  Rube came in on Friday the 13th and went out on April 1st. Truly a man destined for a wild life

  I can&apos;t get over the fact that this character was born on Friday the 13th and died on April Fools Day.😆 Fascinating video.

  Props to the actors who had to improv through Rube firing 40 blanks on accident.
