You were smokin', dude, even in your 60s. And you were apparently a good and decent man who stayed married to the same woman for 63 years and contributed to his community.
Rest in Peace.
Rest in Peace.

About Me
- Janiece
- I am a Hot Chick living in Castle Rock, CO with my fabulous family. We have a rescue dog named "Jackson," and she's a Basenji/Shepherd mix. She's something of a head case, but we love her. I'm a U.S. Navy vet, and I currently work as an Enterprise Solutions Architect, specializing in VoIP and multimedia contact center design. I care about social justice, libraries, science, the U.S. Constitution and the military. I'm a tax and spend liberal in a largely red county, but I try not to be stabby about it. I knit for charity. Stupidity, cupidity and wanton assholery piss me off, and I'm more than a little soft when it comes to dogs and those who serve others. I blog about whatever I feel like. I use foul language, so if that sort of thing offends you, feel free to fuck off now - if I'm unwilling to clean up my language for my fabulous Great Auntie Margie, I'm unlikely to do so for you. Newcomers are welcome here, especially those who disagree with me, but trolling and spamming will be met with the Shovel of Doom™.

Man, that sucks. So soon after Patrick McGoohan too. :(
I'm going to have to go by the Ricardo Montalbán Theatre tonight or tomorrow night and pay my respects.
He always seemed like a charming and amusing fellow. I especially liked the way he said "Corinthian Leather".
Be it noted that he was a champion for the hespanic population before it became cool. There were a lot of years when he could get a job because of it...
That last should read
"He could NOT get a job"
Can you tell I am tired tonight...
To many classes today..
I saw it on the news earlier. I can't believe Kahn is gone! Loved him in just about everything I ever saw him in.
And the original Star Trek episode when Kahn first shows up was on here last weekend. Pretty sure Wrath of Kahn will show up pretty quick on one of the movie channels! Or I may just have to go buy it as a tribure.
