Well if we are splitting hairs, that is not David Prowse either. Depending on the shot, the actor in the suit for ROTS (where the meme gif is from) is either Gene Bryant or Hayden Christensen. In this case, it is Hayden. David Prowse's last time in the Darth Vader suit was in the Return of the Jedi (1983). David Prowse was in the original trilogy as was the stuntman who performed the choreographed lightsaber duels, Bob Anderson. However, James Earl Jones's voice is present.

Steve Silberman. Last month. Somehow I missed it. https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2024/09/steve-silberman-change-autism-conversation/679760/ Silverman is huge in my circles as he may be the single person most responsible for destigmatizing autism, as well as beating back, scientifically, the notion that vaccines cause autism. This Wired article was huge: https://www.wired.com/2001/12/aspergers/ RIP
Yeah my cousin told me 30 minutes ago. Tough week with him and James Earl Jones. My cousin remarked the escalator to heaven must have a heck of soundtrack for this year.

Italy 90 was the first World cup that I remember (I loved the Ciao mascot back then, now it just looks dumb), and Schillaci was a revelation in that tournament. He played fantastic!. Sad he died so young.
Csonka up the middle, Kiick out for a screen, Morris around end. Greise looks over top of his glasses and surveys. Fleming sets a hook, Twilley cuts a pattern, Warfield - oh Warfield! - slides and glides and shimmies and flies. White handkerchiefs swirling.
"“All life is a series of problems which we must try and solve, first one and then the next and then the next, until at last we die.”" --Maggie Smith as the Dowager Countess on Downton Abbey.
He had one of those All-American lives. Athlete & Rhodes scholar. Joined the Army and served in West Germany. Quit that, went to Nashville in the kid 60s, got his tapes to Johnny Cash byv landing a helicopter (was pilot in Army) on his property and giving him demos. Cash then had him on his variety show. Singer-songwriter, actor, rancoteur. Must've had some crazy stories from BITD. RIP to a legend.
