    RIP to Rip

    Rip Torn passed away this morning. I mostly loved him from Dodgeball, but reading the article below had some amazing stories about his life, including the time he got in a knife fight with Dennis Hopper!

    Haven't we all got into a knife fight with Dennis Hopper at some point in our lives?

    I’ll always remember him doing a brilliant Freddie de Cordova impression in Larry Sanders.

    I had a flash of him playing Richard Nixon, but thought I might be imagining things, so I looked it up.

    1979, "Blind Ambition" miniseries with Martin Sheen as John Dean, William Daniels as G. Gordon Liddy, and Christopher Guest as Jeb McGruder.

    the time he got in a knife fight with Dennis Hopper!
    Was it a knife fight or a knife to hook fight after shots of Rum and Scully's catch of the day.
