How is this for irony...


According to this Web Site, one of John Carradine's quotes was, "Never do anything you don't want to be caught dead doing". In view of his son David's recent death, that was advise, sorry to say, not heeded.

David should have listened to his Daddy, I think.

I just noticed the same quote from his father, and I was about to add the same comment. Too bad David did not heed his father's advice. A sad end to a talented actor's life.

I added that particular quote for John Carradine. Boy does that quote take on a whole different meaning in the wake of David Carradine's bizarre untimely death.

"We're all part Shatner/And part James Dean/Part Warren Oates/And Steven McQueen"

So instead of the five-pointed-exploding-heart-technique, he did himself in using the five-fingered exploding ________ technique?
