November 10, 200619 yr R.I.P. Aside from his films, I was also a fairly big fan of his work as host of Ripley's BELIEVE OR NOT!, waaay back in the day. He had a distinct vocal delivery, and a strangely unsettling smile. He'll be missed.
November 11, 200619 yr Cal: That's a good looking grandma! My grandma looks like Jack Palance. Andy Stitzer: Well, she's no Jack Palance. Cal: No. If Jack Palance looked like that lady I would want to f*** Jack Palance right now.
November 12, 200619 yr RIP. I bet he's already doing one-handed push ups in heaven. My thoughts exactly. What a man! :thumbup
