Nerf-Coated World

What????

Man. This is another bad day for entertainment. Johnny Cash has died.

And as if that weren't bad enough, John Ritter collapsed on the set of his show, 8 Simple Rules. He died of heart failure at 54. I really liked him. One of his best performances was in a great episode of Buffy -- he played a crazy robot named Ted who was trying to insert himself into Buffy and Joyce's life as the new father figure, using some kick-ass psychadelic cookies to make everyone love him. Side note, I know, but let's face it: you probably didn't know that before, and now you do.

Sigh.
