Sign the Check, Roger

Henry Gibson, one of the great character actors of all-time has passed away.

Raise a glass, spill some on the floor, whatever you like. But a moment please, for a fine actor.

RIP, he was great on Laugh-In.

Patrick Swayze, Henry Gibson, Mary Travers & Myles Brand in the past couple of days. Is it just me or are a lot more famous people dying this year?

2,3 It could also be the caliber of celebrity passing away this summer. Cronkite (GOAT), Jackson (on par with Elvis including post-death sightings), Swayze was a legitimate hollywood star, the last of the Kennedy super-politicos, Farrah (an icon in her day), John Hughes (underrated director of the defining movies of a generation), you get the picture.
