WTF? A great talent lost. I usually could care less when one of these spoiled babies OD but I believe this guy was different. He made it on talent alone and this is just sad news to any movie Lover.

Yep. Damn shame.
There must also be a flyable computer available for Nefarious to do FSO. So he doesn't keep talking about it for eight and a half hours on Friday night!

When a successful person ODs on heroin, do you still refer to it "passing away"? "Throws it all away for drugs", "trades impressive career for permanent high" or "wins the heroin lottery" seems more apropos.
My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives.

Fell off the wagon after 23 years... :confused:
Kinda makes me regret some youthfully dumb, past decisions..


Good actor though, sorry he's gone.

Hey, you're a fool you
Stick them needles in your arm
I know I been there before

One little problem that confronts you
Got a monkey on your back
Just one more fix, Lord might do the trick
One hell of a price for you to get your kicks
Ooooh that smell
Can't you smell that smell
Ooooh that smell
The smell of death surrounds you
Ooooh that smell
Can't you smell that smell
Ooooh that smell
The smell of death surrounds you
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude than the animated contest of freedom, go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen!

Yup....found with 50 bags of heroin and other prescription meds...great man...he'll be steadily on the road to sobriety now. Think I'm mean, horrid, uncaring/ Yup, when it comes to addicts, no sympathy, we didn't lose a great person, we just lost another addict who chose his fate. Live with one a while...you'll understand.

All that was said is he was a good actor, not Gandhi.

"passes" lol.  bad title.

RIP.  I'd seen him once or twice around the West Village over the years.  Always looked messed up.
