The Hits just keep on coming!
Jun. 29th, 2009 10:36 amComedian/songwriter Fred Travalena DEAD!
You're asking yourself "Who in the fornication is Fred Travalena?"
He was THE impressionist in the 70's and 80's that wasn't Rich Little. If you remember seeing a stand-up comedian on TV doing impressions of a President or a Celebrity in the 70's or 80's and it wasn't Rich Little? IT WAS FRED TRAVALENA.
Is it just me, or does today's Celebrity Death seem kinda lacking?
You remember in the Old Days of Wheel of Fortune, when they'd have the winner "spend" his or her winnings on variety of prizes that were set-up on a spinning display? "I'll take the Pair of Motor Bikes for $800, the Trip To The Bahamas for $950... the year of Maid Service for $600... the Giant Ceramic Dog for $300... and the rest of it on a Gift Certificate".
Fred Travalena is definitely the Giant Ceramic Dog of this current Death March. Not enough to get the Pinball Machine, too much to put the rest on a gift certificate... guess I'll get The Fred Travalena.
Death is really grasping now.
