Charles Rocket Has Killed Himself. A sad final note to a career that never quite took off.
Fuck.

Who?

The guy from the (fisrt)unfunny years (not the current ones)of SNL who said "fuck" on TV.

That's too bad. He was one of those supporting characters I was always happy to see. Funny dude.

To think, censorship may have had a hand in ending this dude's career... and life. All he did was say "fuck." Who knows where he might have been?

Then again, wasn't that the year they fired everyone but Eddie Murphy?

Eeek! Sorry. Must've had a cookie for that site.

I had no idea who that was either. The thing about cutting his own throat is pretty gross. I feel bad for his family. Pretty selfish thing to do, all in all.

honest to god my first reaction was simply "fuck"
i wasn't sure until i found a picture
besides touched by an angel, i've seen/heard him in almost everything it seems.
this is horrible.

it is terrible--i had an important crush on him in 10th grade, and was all excited about the new blood on SNL--those of us in highschool then needed people who weren't thirty or older to make us laugh--the original cast belonged to those people we babysat for--old boomers--they were so very tired and unfunny. Him and Denny Dillon and Mary Gross and Tim whats-his-name were really funny, and needed back then--the beginning of 12 very very long Reagan years. And, non-importantly, that whole valley girl thing started with that cast, and not with Moon Unit.

/accepting that the preceding makes me old and obsolete, but forever valuing that group as belonging to me and my peers alone, and derided by history, since they weren't the original nor the Piscopo/Muephy years.

And--is it even possible at all to cut your own throat enough to kill yourself?

Never heard of him. People die all the time. Meh.

(imdb didn't even have a pic of him)

then why did you comment?
taz had to remove my picture link because they apparently decided to use the link/traffic/opportunity/whatnot to make it ugly/pointless/takeupspace--
ok, i understand now--

what i meant to post, sorry
amber: you can but in cases of self stabbing like elliott smith, i asked a few experts as to if that was possible, as it was two stabs to the chest-- soon it was no longer considered suicide and i haven't kept up so i don't know what has happened there.

i did have a wonder if new england does something to add some lingering despair in people (having had to live there and having personal issues with the place as well as my still smarting spalding greys and blues and others and back on the phone--)
