I honestly thought Jan-Michael Vincent was the guy who died in the 80s after shooting himself with a prop gun with blanks? Is this one of those Mandela Effect things?
Jon Erik Hexum.
And I am proud to say that I knew this fact off the top of my head.
10 Swamp Shekels if you can tell me the show he was filming.
Wracked my brain,.. but it's not coming.
I do remember that Jennifer O'Neil was part of the show - or a movie he had been in.
Cover Up, but you get 5 shekels for Jennifer O’Neill (been married 9 times to 8 men, accidentally shot herself in the stomach once).

Seattle-based Singer Shawn Smith had died at the age of 53. The cause of death of the former Brad, Satchel and Pigeonhed singer has not yet been confirmed.
The news was confirmed by a number of fellow musicians, including Posies founder and occasional R.E.M. member Ken Stringfellow, who wrote, "So sad to wake up to the news about the passing of Shawn Smith. Shawn and I shared a mutual close friend, and thus Shawn would frequently house sit for me when I was on tour, writing (and sometimes recording) on my piano.
April 5th...rough day for Seattle Musicians (also the day that Kurt Cobain and Layne Staley died.
Oh man just listening to one of his albums on the drive up to Reno. Satchel is one of my favorite “secret” bands of the 90s that never hit it big for some reason.
Good to mention here that if you never saw Quiz Show now would be a great time to change that. It was part of a real Murderer's Row of Best Pictures nominees that year.
My avatar corresponds on my place in the Swamp posting list with the all-time Home Run list. Number 45 is Paul Konerko with 439.
Nipsey Hussle was murdered on 31 March. By nearly all accounts he seemed like a good person that wanted to help in the community. He actually wanted to meet with local law enforcement to find a way to reduce gun violence. That's admirable. So his death was made that much worse considering he was shot to death.
However, it's been two weeks and he's been venerated over and over to the point of deification . Like, I get it. People grieve differently and this incident was tragic. But this is just too much. He was a person who wanted peace in his community, not the second coming of Christ.

Hype has a momentum all its own.
"beautiful, with an exotic-yet-familiar facial structure and an arresting gaze."
Damn. I haven't watched it in years, mostly out of fear that it hasn't aged well, but Boyz n the Hood messed with the head of this poster boy for suburbia pretty badly.
well this is gonna be someone's new signature - bronto
