Pour out a little liquor....

Since part of the inspiration for our blog came from a discussion of Jonathan Brandis' and "Jennifer" Midlers' deaths, I have been dubbed the Celebrity Death columnist. I'm SUPPOSED to bring you news of obscure, B-List celebrities obituaries. I apparently haven't been doing my job since another RBIE staffer had to point out a few note-worthy passings, but here goes:

DON KNOTTS died!!

REALLY? Yep, stop crying.

WHO? You know, the landlord from Three's Company!!!

AWWWW.

Also, MABEL M. SMYTHE-HAITH died!

REALLY? Yes, of Alzheimers.

WHO? She was the former US Ambassador to Equatorial Guinea (as opposed to Guinea or New Guinea? This one is in Africa, next to Sierra Leone).

AWWWW.

AND.....Bruce Hart too!

REALLY? Yeah. Poor chap.

WHO? He wrote the lyrics to "Sesame Street"!

AWWWW.


Ok, are you happy you cold-hearted bastard?! Reason #6879584 Chatouille may be heading somewhere unseasonably warm ;)
