Wife has a signed copy of The Very Hungry Caterpillar where he fucked up his original signature and converted it into a caterpillar then signed again.

Wonder if he ever referred to his penis as the very hungry caterpillar.

Bon voyage, captain Stubing (90}.

Underrated actor, was great in Kelly's Heroes.

Just wait until the TV shows you watched as a kid, whose stars were maybe 10-15 years older than you, start dying off.

That's going to be fun.

Big Utah Jazz galoot Mark Eaton...must have been a custom bike.

Quote

Mark Eaton, the 7-foot-4 shot-blocking king who twice was the NBA Defensive Player of the Year during his career with the Utah Jazz, has died, the team said Saturday. He was 64.

The Jazz said that police said Eaton was found lying in the road around 8:30 p.m. Friday after apparently crashing his bike in Summit County, Utah. According to the team, the Summit County Sheriff's Office said that Eaton was taken to a hospital, where he later died, and that there was no reason to believe a vehicle was involved in the accident.

Damn what did Lee Bailey do to you?

[Aqua Buddha 14807]

Was surprised he was still alive.

[Armybrat 41412]

Flea Bailey certainly was a big name at one time.

I am surprised at how many members of that "Dream Team" are still alive.  Like 6 outta 10 are still breathing, way better than I thought.  

Also, if the Olympics hadn't allowed our NBA "Dream Team" to play in Barcelona where that term went "viral"........what would people have called O.J.'s legal team?

Murderer's Row would be the most obvious sports analogy.  But I think something more clever would have been dreamt up.

Anyone have Clarence Williams III on their list?  Passed away @81.  Best known for The Mod Squad, Purple Rain and this classic...

I read a couple of articles that said he always regretted doing that scene and that he suffered effects of PTSD afterwards.

Hope he has his own little Otisville, now.  RIP

Generals gathered in their masses
Just like witches at black masses
Evil minds that plot destruction
Sorcerer of death's construction
In the fields the bodies burning
As the war machine keeps turning
Death and hatred to Mankind
Poisoning their brainwashed minds...
Oh Lord yeah!

Damn, I saw the Bill Cosby thread and this thread, and thought there was a convergence.

No, you're thinking of the water softener guy with the ancient Chinese secret who was constantly being asked by women to take them away. Cal Gon was his name I think.

I didn't know that Ted Turner has Lewy Body dementia. I guess he and Bob Newhart should be on the list.

I think Bob is already dead. They are just keeping his body around.

He played Texas Ranger Joe Riley on Laredo.

James Garner called him gay and fed him a roll of quarters in the pilot episode of The Rockford Files.

I haven't been keeping up with this thread and just today saw this. Without doing the googles I seem to think she was also a girlfriend to one of the characters on "Gomer Pyle USMC".  For whatever reason that's the TV show I associate her name with at least.

She was never on Gomer. I think you're confusing her with Lou-Ann Poovie (Elizabeth MacRae)

Naw, it was the name Arlene Golonka that I remember, not the face. Guess it was just Andy's show, which had Gomer on it and I mis-associated.

Damn he still looked like Bob Newhart when he did cameos on Big Bang Theory a couple years ago. 

[Underdog 29194]

One funny man, though.
