For those outside of Canada, Ted Rogers was a Canadian media baron who owned Rogers Communications.

I'm not sure how I feel about this at the moment. Being a media geek, I have some very strong minded opinions on the Rogers company. I'll be honest - I never liked Ted, but it seems awkward and odd to think that he's gone. At least, in the sense that you can't reference Ted directly and blame him for everything.

Yeah. Wow. This is going to take some time to sink in.

My boss's cellphone died yesterday too. No joke.
