RIP Max Wright, best known for playing Willie Tanner, the father on ALF.

He was only 75, which is a little surprising since he already looked older than his mid-fifties when he was on Norm Macdonald's sitcom The Norm Show which premiered two whole decades ago and only lasted two-and-a-half seasons. It might have been the crack he was smoking at the time that aged him prematurely.

May he live on through those fucked up edits Andrew Hussie made. F.

RIP Billy Drago. Character actor who was perfect at playing creepy backwoods villains. Younger people might know him best as Barbas, the demon of fear from Charmed

RIP Susan Bernard from Faster Pussycat! Kill! Kill! and Edith Scob from Eyes Without A Face. Today's a really bad day to be a fan of 60s cult movies.

RIP Ross Perot.

Texas billionaire H. Ross Perot dies aged 89

DALLAS (AP) — H. Ross Perot, the colorful, self-made Texas billionaire who twice ran for president, has died.
Family spokesman James Fuller says Perot died early Tuesday. He was 89.
Perot rose from Depression-era poverty to become one of the nation's richest men as the founder of computer services giant Electronic Data Systems Corp.

In 1992, Perot jumped into the presidential campaign as an independent candidate, challenging President George H.W. Bush and Democrat Bill Clinton.
Perot drew nearly 19% of the vote, the biggest percentage for a third-party hopeful in 80 years. Republicans blamed him for Bush's defeat.
He had founded EDS in 1962 and sold control of it to General Motors for $2.5 billion in 1984. He later founded another company, Perot Systems.

Eddie Jones and Freddie Jones on the same day? That's weirdly poetic.

Freddie Jones was also the stern school headmaster Scruton on The Secret Diary of Adrian Mole and The Growing Pains of Adrian Mole, the character best remembered for not being a fan of his students wearing red socks.
