RIP Martin Mull.

Underrated....
From the vault..
Two years ago the Browns invited Mull to a practice and had him try a 20-yard field goal under game conditions. "They even called timeout to make me think about it," says Mull. He recalls that the team "gave me [jersey] number 38, the one worn by Sam Baker, the worst kicker the Browns ever had. That way I had no expectations to live up to." Mull was disappointed that his kick just barely made it through the uprights, so he stepped up his training. A year later, with the help of some tips from Browns kicker Matt Bahr, who has become a good friend, Mull hit three 40-yarders before a Cleveland-Tampa Bay exhibition game. "He works very hard at his routine, he's deadpan in his delivery and he's funny to watch," says Bahr.
Mull, 46, hit a personal-record 47-yarder during one of his practice sessions this year, and he says his goal is to "kick my age until I'm 64, at which point I'll eclipse Tom Dempsey's NFL record for the longest field goal."

Martin Mull ... 
just a ton of great stuff out there he did - including "History of White People In America"
faithfully watched Fernwood 2 Nite with he and Fred Willard - here's a great clip where Jim Varney is the local "car expert"

Mull also recorded several hilarious albums. Here is one of my favorite songs off his "Normal" album:

First Verse:
I'm only as good as the woman I'm with
If she's a devil then I find her level I'm flexible
I'm only as smart as the woman I'm with
If she's a dunce then I'm stupid at once I'm flexible
my 2 other fav's from this album:

Mull was great. And was doing good comedic work for a long long time.
I probably first saw him in Mr. Mom. Mull celebrating the employee picnic Olympics lol
Mull and Fred Willard in Fernwood 2 Night. Before my time, but I caught a lot in replays on random UHF channels and YouTube. One would think with unlimited channels, and billions of podcasts, someone would be making something this funny. But, no. Here's where they interview a Jew who was stopped for speeding in town.
Mull and Tim Curry in Clue (This is WAR Peacock!)
Mull and Jessica Walter in Arrested Development. Every second those two were on screen together when Gene Parmesan made an appearance was classic.
And here he is, randomly being the meanest pharmacist in the world.

Around 95 I was doing a lot of traveling and the company I worked for put us up in a lot of Red Roof Inns. At the time Mull was the their spokesman or something. Mull was recorded for a bunch of humorous videos as part of their interactive TV programming in the motels.
I can imagine him looking at me right now saying something sarcastic in response to being remembered for such a dopey thing.

This will be a bit obscure for most, but producer Peter Collins passed away. Among many others, he produced four Rush albums (Power Windows, Hold Your Fire, Counterparts, Test for Echo) and two Queensryche albums (Operation: Mindcrime and Empire).

Right - Joe Bonsall was the dark-haired mustachioed one with the perm. Kind of a cross between John Oates and Juan Epstein.He sang the verses on that song, but the "giddy up" part was sung by Richard Sterban.

Film stars Warren Beatty and really this should be on the guy's hit list around here but it appeals to more than just guys, Mrs liked this film as well.
Shelly makes a nice appearance and this is about a decade prior to The Shining
Duval would be in 7 different Robert Altman films, safe to say that Altman thought very highly of her
-I never thought Shelly was much of a looker, I saw her in Popeye and other films but then I saw her in this film I mentioned above when she was just 22 years old
RIP Shelly

I can't remember who played Bluto, but NFL coach Matt Patricia would have been about right for the role.

TIL that the same guy that played Bluto also played the sadistic Turkish prison guard in Midnight Express.

Bill Viola, video artist, gone at 75.
Saw his work a number of times around NYC museums. Always thought provoking and beautiful, especially for a medium that's easy to swing and miss on. I knew if something of his was at an exhibit or show I'd be checking it out first. A huge loss in the art world.

He obviously left an emotional pull on people because on the Twitter timeline there is his name and then above and below him are nothing but topics about a certain something that we can't talk about.
