RIP 2010 - Page 14

This news saddens me. So many people in his life trying to help him get clean, and him doing everything but. The article had him working with an "addictionologist," which sounds like a fancy term for snake-oil salesman (went back to the link but the original article is gone) and on some medication to help with his substance abuse issues. I'm guessing the OTC stuff was abused (really easy to overdo robitussin) and combined badly with whatever other meds he was taking. Poor guy.

I'll always remember him as Jonathan Garvey from Little House. I didn't even know he was a football player with the Rams until now....

That may be because as a football player he went by the name Steve Garvey.

I loved Mission Impossible. Peter Graves was terrific and he was hilarious in Airplane. RIP

He was a funny man! We just watched Airplane on Friday. I still find it just as funny as the first time I saw it and the boy loved it!
