Actor Dick Miller died January 30th. He was a long time character actor. If the name isn't familiar he's the gun store owner in that classic TERMINATOR scene. "Just what you see here, pal!"

Peter Tork of the MONKEES

Only two MONKEES left. (No one remembers the New Monkees).

Bruno Ganz (Downfall) died on the 16th...now I have to search Youtube for "Hitler reacts to the death of Bruno Ganz".

Damn, they really do always come in threes...

For a long time, I thought Keith Flint WAS The Prodigy. Loved their first album...

Jan Michael Vincent of Airwolf in February.  Man, Stringfellow Hawke was a staple in the house.

This is super lame.  By the time we’re his age there won’t be anyone involved with the originals left.
