Obits


Two unrelated but notable passings to share.

The first is Alex Toth, best known for his animation work on the Hanna Barbara cartoons such as Superfriends. He literally died at his art table, doing what he loved to do.






The second, is actor Paul Gleason. A name you probably don't know but he was one of the best dickheads on the big and small screen. Gleason played the angry principal in "The Breakfast Club", the idiot LA Police Lt. in "Die Hard" and had a wide range of appearances on TV in probably just about every show in the 90's. However, most frighteningly, he starred in the 1985 made-for-TV movie, "Ewoks: The Battle for Endor". He died of lung cancer.
