Loved him in Moonstruck and Say Anything
Cyril Taylor, founder of the American Institute for Foreign Studies
And he was delightfully corrupt in “Primal Fear”
Pope Benedict XVI wrote a letter saying he is preparing for “home”.
How many have him?
Seven, according to our Death Shroom in post #216.
Mickey Jones might not be a household name but he was the go to guy if you needed a biker type in tv and movies for decades. I had no idea that he was also a drummer in several big bands like First Edition and with Bob Dylan when Levon Helm wasn’t available.
Didn’t recognize the name, but that was immediately who I pictured!
“Joseph Polchinski, one of the most creative physicists of his generation, whose work helped lay the mathematical foundation for the controversial proposition that our universe is only one in an almost endless assemblage that cosmologists call the “multiverse,” died on Friday at his home in Santa Barbara, Calif. He was 63.” Brain cancer.
“Dr. Victor Sidel, a leading public health specialist whose concerns ranged from alleviating the effects of poverty in the Bronx, where he worked for many years, to raising alarms about the potential impact of nuclear war, died on Jan. 30 in Greenwood Village, Colo. He was 86.”
Excellent read on his career.
"Leon (Ndugu) Chancler, a drummer whose crisp grooves and pinpoint fireworks of syncopation were heard on hundreds of albums — including Michael Jackson’s “Thriller,” on which his drumbeat starts the song “Billie Jean” — died on Saturday in Los Angeles. He was 65.
The cause was prostate cancer, his family said in a statement."
Watch out drummers; things come in three’s.
psst: see post #434
My bad. Couldn’t read the article and death / age wasn’t mentioned in the readable summary.
Those two posts actually exist in two different universes. We’ve conveniently cross-ripped between the two in honor of Dr. Polchinski
They both exist and do not exist, until the wave function collapses.
If two posts announce a Celeb death, yet no one thought to pick it, is this noise?
Anyone have rapper/DJ Lovebug Starski(Kevin Smith)-Age 57?
I’m inclined to say no
It’s raining corpses. Notable deaths but I don’t think they were picks.
Reg Cathey 59. If you don’t know the name you know his face and great voice. From House of Cards and The Wire.

Craig MacGregor 68. Bass player for Foghat.
John Gavin 86. Film actor(Psycho, Spartacus), ambassador to Mexico under Reagan, screen actors guild president.
I was trying to place Reg Cathey. I never watched The Wire or House of Cards. He’s Marcus from Airheads. I love that movie.
“‘Pie-hole.’ What’s that, some kind of cracker slang?”
No, didn’t have him in my themed Rapper list - dammmit.
