    Unhappy Actor Dennis Farina died...

    He was one of the greats, and not the most well known but always stealing scenes kind of actors... He played on Law & Order for several years, and, my favorite role of his, Cousin Avi in Snatch- best line:
    Yes, London. You know: fish, chips, cup 'o tea, bad food, worse weather, Mary fucking Poppins... LONDON.

    Here's the story from Fox News:
    'Law & Order' star Dennis Farina dies at 69, publicist says

    Dennis Farina, a onetime Chicago cop who as a popular actor played a cop on "Law & Order," has died, his rep told FOX411.
    Farina died Monday morning in a Scottsdale, Ariz., hospital after suffering a blood clot in his lung, according to his publicist, Lori De Waal. He was 69.

    And I didn't know he was a Chicago cop for a number of years before becoming an actor. He was a great actor and will be missed.

    "Why do they call him "The Bullet Dodger?"

    "Cause he dodges bullets, Avi."

    I couldn't believe it when I saw the story.

    Frankly, I can't imagine that he was only 69; he seemed much older.

    That really sucks. I always thought he was great in the movie Snatch.
