I'm trying very hard not to come up with a kryptonyte joke... I think I may understand why people uncontrollably laugh at their grandma's funeral or someone else's funeral or something like that. There's no reason whatsoever, it's just compelling... Of course, I could be wrong, and probably am. I think there's a funeral home in vermont or virgina or some place that starts with a 'V'. or maybe it was a 'T'. I dunno. But there's a funeral home somewhere with a little drive-thru window made so you can laugh at the dead person all you want. ...I'm sorry, I'm terrible, I know. At least I'm not as bad as Peter Griffin. Edit: Don't you yell at me, I know you all were thinking the exact same thing!

Swiped from T.K Dye's LJ: Christopher Reeve Goodbye.... In 1978, "Superman" was the film of choice for all three of us kids growing up in Las Vegas. As Dad would drive us around and pass the Fox Theater in the Charleston Plaza Mall, the yell would come out: "Let's go see 'Superman!'" We must have seen it five or six times in the theater. Reeve was just an excellent and fun actor to watch, in any film he was in. All the Superman films (he was even classy in the bad ones like III and IV), and other films like "Noises Off" and "Village of the Damned" showed off his charisma, charm and intelligence. He also had an enormous heart and conscience. He said he would only do a fourth Superman film if it centered around a topic he was deeply concerned with: nuclear proliferation. Of course, once he suffered the loss of the use of most of the lower half of his body, his true fortitude came into play. He continued to act and direct, and became a tireless advocate for stem cell research and spinal injury studies. I admired him right up until the last. The world has lost a genuine hero, in my opinion. Mr. Reeve was not just Superman in the movies, but a Superman in real life.

Didn't Superman die in 1992 or something. I'm sorry, i apologise. The last time i saw Reeve was in a BBC interview with Tim Sebastian about stem cell research and the international situation. That was a few months back, he seemed dynamic.

I heard about this yesterday from one of the guys on my floor. Unexpected and a downer indeed.
