Inventor of the semi-truck.

Inspiration for Optimus Prime.

The man who pleasured every woman he ever met, and far better than anyone else.
That dude was a living bad ass. He was an Army Capt in the Rangers. He taught at West Point.

He was badass enough to hang with Waylon Jennings, Johnny Cash, and Willie Nelson.

He could out-squint Clint Eastwood and Chuck Norris.

He was one of the first guests on SNL.

He kicked off Marvel’s supremacy at the box office for the last quarter century.

He's one of those celebrities that I thought might be immortal and he showed my mom how to punch the dog in the dick.

He was a Rhodes Scholar.

He convinced Johnny Cash to record one of his songs by fucking stealing an Army helicopter and landing it on Johnny's lawn.

He told Toby Keith he was an opportunistic piece of shit to his face.

Fucking legend.

Dikembe Mutombo, 58, brain cancer
Pete Rose, 83.

I started playing baseball when I was 9. The coaches wanted us to play like Pete Rose. During the summer we would build a slip n' slide and emulate the head first slide he was famous for. I know he wasn't perfect, but as a kid he was a role model.

Man, if you want to throw as many *s behind his name as you want, fine.
But put him in the Hall of Fame.

It's time. I've believed for years they would enshrine him as soon as he passed. RIP to both Charlie Hustle and that legendary fucking bowlcut.

John Amos, 84. Natural causes. He died like a month ago, but his son just announced it.

I was too young to remember What’s Happening or Roots, so my first memory of him was the Dad in Coming to America, and the Special Forces badass in DieHard 2.

Paul Di'Anno, 66. Original lead singer for Iron Maiden. Best known for performing on their first two albums and keeping the seat warm for Bruce Dickinson, pretending he was of Italian descent, getting fired over being incredibly irresponsible and simply not showing up for performances, and calling the other members "Hitler" and "Mussolini" because they wanted a lead singer who could show up and, y'know, sing (up until they helped out with his surgeries; then they were great guys). Good singer, but one weird, complicated, apparently generally unpleasant fellow. Cause of death unspecified, but likely complications to some sort of knee injury a few years ago that has required multiple surgeries over the past decade.

Fernando Valenzuela, MLB Pitcher for the Dodgers back in the 80s. He was the first rookie pitcher to open a season and took them to the World Series. Who remembers Fernandomania?

He was 63.

I had a friend who lived in my neighborhood named Freddie Valenzuela. He was one of the 4 or 5 of us that were on the same baseball and soccer teams. We used to joke that Fernando was his uncle or something.

Teri Garr.

"Roll, roll, roll een zee hay."

Unless I'm mistaken, Gene Hackman is the last remaining adult cast member of Young Frankenstein. Not counting Mel, of course, who I think is immortal.

Unfortunately, that seems right, but the movie is 50 years old.

In recent re-watches, I noticed Teri Garr in an episode of MASH and a small part in an Elvis movie.
