The buzz on Twitter about him was overwhelmingly positive and affectionate. And if you ask me, it all felt pretty sincere. I apologize for obnoxiously re-tweeting myself, but I think my thoughts about Macho Man&#8217;s passing are best summed up by my tweets on Friday:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><i><span class=\"Apple-style-span\"  style=\"font-size:x-small;\">RIP Macho Man Randy Savage; the best face, the best heel, the best talker, and my favorite peddler of Slim Jims.<\/p>\n<p>Pomp and Circumstance and MACHO MADNESS!!!
