Travis Sheldon Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 Sad to hear of Richard Lewis passing. IIRC, he has appeared on one of the four Curb episodes that are out now. Been a fan of his since the 80s, Late Night w/David Letterman was a staple for me, so I got to see him a lot of him on there. Still love the 1988 film The Wrong Guys, only Tim Thomerson and Franklyn Ajaye remain from Den 7. R.I.P. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
driver Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 My first exposure to Lewis was the series he did with Jamie Lee Curtis. Second exposure was him being interviewed on Stern(years later). RIP. The same age as my parents. The age thing is what hits the most. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piranesi Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 somewhere out there he's saying to all his friends "See, I told you. I'm not healthy. You all thought I was joking! Well who's laughing now!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curt McGirt Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 Just about to say that. The moving mole was one of those great subtle (for him, anyway) Brooks gags. And the movie is still hilarious and stands up perfectly well after all these years. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leone was found dead, possibly after a home invasion, so there's a homicide investigation. One was an OD. Another woman apparently had a cardiac event while in rehab and is in a coma. There was also a suicide too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coletti Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 Masuimi Max was the accidental OD, fentanyl mixed in with cocaine. She was less "porn star" and more "fetish model," but obviously a similar category. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 (edited) It's beyond me why dealers would cut fentanyl with coke. I know they want addicted customers but there are so many recreational cocaine users that killing them seems to have less of a profit margin than dope fiends, who are ready and willing to die and will buy more if someone dies from your package. Someone seeing their friends die from a casual line aren't gonna buy anymore, more likely, unless they have a serious addiction. I had a guy in rehab that (unwitting and unwillingly) smoked crack cut with it! That is not knowing your customer base.

Coletti Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 I've had the same exact thought. Killing off your customer base at a rapid clip seems like exact wrong idea, on top of the whole brutally immoral aspect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In some cases it's thought that the fentanyl got mixed in with cocaine due to cross contamination, basically being processed/packaged in the same facility with no type of cleaning happening. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curt McGirt Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 (edited) At this point you probably shouldn't do coke unless it's straight from the brick. These cartels fucked everything up for everybody (unless you're a movie star or a direct plug or something). EDIT: I wonder if Europe is going through the same issues as the US, and I actually doubt it. Britain in particular has a huge population of recreational users of charlie and you don't hear of regular ODs over there, likely due to alternate sourcing than Mexico. Or maybe we've just got to give them time for the fentanyl scourge to catch on over there. Edited March 12 by Curt McGirt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odessasteps Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 I don’t know if it’s still true, but I know people have been talking about a growing number of coked up fans at football matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She had been suffering from mental health issues sincing retiring and was barely recognizable in the picture I saw. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zimbra Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 RIP to legendary character actor M Emmett Walsh, who has died at age 88. DEAN once described his character from Blood Simple as looking like he had placed individual baked beans over each of his teeth and I could never see him without thinking of that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
