Scott Weiland and Robert Loggia December 4 2015

Hundreds of thousands of 30 something suburban bros weaned on alt rock made themselves post mournfully on Facebook today over the death of Scott Weiland, lead singer of Stone Temple Pilots. That band always seems somewhere between Silverchair and Pearl Jam in the spectrum of unmeaningful Nirvana coattail-riders but a lot of people seem pretty fake broken up about it. Nothing coming has said it was related to drugs but. Heroin?

Also Robert Loggia died at age 85. He played the gangster in Lost Highway, and I think few actors could do comedy and intimidation simultaneously the way he did it. I couldn't find the whole clip, but the end, when he says something like "hey kid, want to borrow some pornos? It'l give you a boner..." makes me crack up every time.
