RIP James Gandolfini
So it’s apparently true that James Gandolfini died of a heart attack today at the age of 51 while in Italy.
Given I’d just polished off some tasty pasta carbonara, washed down with some Mr. Pibb, this is a totally crappy coda to that otherwise enjoyable meal.
I have no idea why I’m bringing up my most recent meal. Maybe because Tony Soprano ate so much on the Sopranos, and so I associate Gandolfini with eating.
Anyways, RIP Tony Soprano. A great actor.
You were the best.
I’ve met several of the actors from the Sopranos, and each one of them (including Mr. G.) was an ego-free, friendly delight to talk to.

Big Italians are just that way, I guess, and he was one of the biggest.
One of the best things ever to come out of Rutgers.
liked him best in ‘True Romance’
…he’ll be missed!
Whoa! I shouldn’t have just eaten that double veal Calabrese with the brasciole filling and mortadelle. I have nothing to say about this except you only live once. And my favourite dirty scene from the Sopranos, which I never watched until after it was over and then when we got the HBO unfrozen and watched them all in a few months and I was hooked. I’d fuck all the chicks on that show except the mothers and the sister and any other ladies over 75. And I would do the fat sister if she asked me and I couldn’t get caught.

I bet he fucked this chick. She gives the Renob. Son.

This is the most depressing post since BCS died.
R.I.P. Gandolfini – never watched The Sopranos. I don’t watch HBO stuff unless I’m getting paid to make music for it. But I hear it was a good series.
ya never know when you’re gonna check out! live the remaining days of your life with zeal and rapt enthusiasm, then, remember to eat some fibre!
He gets a notta bypass. Too soon?
Tony was all about food, Chief. It had something to do with his ma.
I don’t know what’s sadder – Mr. Gandalfini passing away so young, or the fact that I find out about all major news events on this web site (Michael Jackson dying, Donk being released, Plinky’s Mom’s labiaplasty, etc.).

and 10 points to HuffinMore for The Dude’s bad-ass yet crass riff. Now if you’ll excuse me I must take my next pain pill, which i’ve come to enjoy by spreading mayonnaise on it. Goes down smoother, and it’s like a greased Tic-Tac of Blessed Relief.

*kof-kof…wheeze…kof-kof**

Here’s my “kof-kof” reference since Goolo’s dead again and would have been the only joker here capable of detecting a riff off of MAD comics #4, the good stuff before the Alfred E. Neumann era of 70’s dreck came along:
Unlike most of us, at least Tony got to whack Big Pussy before he checked out.
At least he passed in The Olde Country.

Mia, I says.
‘Sock, I’da got it. Elder & Kurtzman practically changed my diapers.

I disagree about Alfred E. Son.
