R.I.P. Karl Malden

It's getting to be real depressing reading the obituaries these days. Ed Macmahon, Farrah Fawcett, Michael Jackson, Gale Storm and now Karl Malden. The even sadder thing is that I feel like Edina Monsoon in Absolutely Fabulous when her father died; it's not about them, it's about me and how I feel. It's just too many people happening too fast and making me think about my own mortality just a bit more often than I would like.

I guess this time, he's going to leave home without it.

He gave some wonderful performances in A Streetcar Named Desire, On the Waterfront and Patton.
