Boy, some of these obituaries are starting to hit 'my wheelhouse'. I'm still 'only' 62 but David Birney is someone I watched as a kid. I thought he was younger. No idea why his death made me comment.

Look at his IMDb. He appeared on like every famous TV show. He was a regular on Friends, he was on Seinfeld, Cheers. He was on ER, Grey's Anatomy.

Andy Fletcher and Ray Liotta in the same week. Figures from our youth reminding us of our mortality.

That was one of the tense moments in the movie. Surprising that it was all improvised. Just the uncertain nervousness in Liotta's face.

My understanding is that it was not technically improvised. It was that Pesci went off script and improvised unexpectedly and Ray didn't know what he was doing nor if he was serious as Pesci or in character. His confusion is real as his laughter in relief at the end. So, one of the two was improvising.

I'm listening to Liotta's 2018 interview with Marc Maron. And he tells the story of being a young soap opera star who goes to one of those Times Square stripper rooms. And the stripper recognizes him.

I wonder if Sonny Barger went to Heaven with his Angels, or to Hell.
What do you think?

I personally have no opinion, Cicero Grimes has weighed in, however.




"In his book Hells Angel, Barger claims he was sentenced to 30 years' in jail but served just five and had addictions to 'bikes, booze, girls and good time."

One Barger story:

My Dad worked in downtown Oakland. His Interstate 580 off ramp coming home was Golf Links Road/98th Ave (so named because it dead ends at Chabot GC). At the bottom of the off ramp was a 4 way stop signed intersection.

One night at dinner my Dad said that Sonny Barger was a gentleman. I asked him to explain. My Dad said at the 4 way stop that Sonny had pulled his Harley up to his stop sign line before my Dad pulled his car up to his….but Sonny waived my Dad to proceed first anyway.

Sonny Barger was still alive? I thought he died about 15-20 years ago. I haven't heard a peep out of him in many years.

…and that peep would have been by electronic voice box like Val Kilmer.

THE BARGER WILL NOT QUIT! THE BARGER WILL NOT DIE!*

*Well, at least until he was 83, anyway.

"The New York Times' obituary of Arnold Skolnick, who designed the iconic Woodstock poster in just a few days in 1969, salutes the design as "a model of simplicity."

It "both conveyed information about the festival when and where it was, who was performing and caught the sensibility of the moment," becoming one of the most familiar pop-culture images of its time, The Times' Neil Genzlinger writes.
Skolnick died at 85 last month in Amherst, Mass." Axios

James Caan once ordered a Mafia hit on Joe Pesci:

"On another occasion, the FBI intercepted a phone conversation between Fiato and Caan concerning the actor Joe Pesci. Caan asked his friend to "take care" of Pesci after learning about an unpaid $8,000 bill from Pesci's stay at a friend's Miami hotel."
