From The
Idiot Factor:
It has been more than fifteen years since Tim Pouncey (AKA
Casher O'Neill) wrote for a local newspaper, here in Kansas . But he is still remembered by his
many friends and fans who have
Friends, fans and family are invited to meet, March 12, at
Kirby's for a memorial wake for Tim Pouncey, AKA Casher O'Neill. The event will
be from 4pm to 7pm. He had made a lot of friends here in Wichita as well as many from around the
world, online. Tim was known by his pen name Casher O'Neill to a lot of his
online friends. He has made good friends from as far away as England and Australia .
Tim often worked with me on many of my writing projects. And
most of my writing projects were left-wing. Although Tim never called himself a
Marxist, he helped me on many of my Marxist writing projects. We met while I
was still publishing the Public Voice.
He helped me with my books writing projects and he
wrote a review for one of them. In Kansas
he worked at such newspapers as The
Times-Sentinel, of Cheney, and their various newspaper chains;
the Andover Journal Advocate and
for The Pratt Tribune. And while
he was at the many newspapers he worked at, his columns were read
through-out Kansas and
enjoyed by many. A lot of his old fans knew him from his days at the Wichita State University 's The Sunflower. He was a
columnist there for a few years and that is where he wrote some of his best
stuff. That's not to say his later stuff wasn't good. He could always write a
good column, especially if humor was needed. He was a wizard at satire and he
went after some of our most notorious Republicans, especially Ronald Reagan and
Bob Dole.
This is one last time to meet with other fans, family and
friends to discuss Tim and his past career.
