Thanks for posting this. I was beginning to believe he was a really bad guy until I came upon this post.

I was just exchanging emails with Orson last week. This is a bummer.

As a child I often played the concept album for “Your a Good Man Charlie Brown.” Orsen Bean played Charlie Brown. I always think of him as Charlie Brown.

I always got him confused with Darren McGavin, but what do I know I was born in 76.

Agree it appears the white lines that cross the streets here in LA are to measure how far you got tossed, it happen every night here due to drunks dopers and speeders.
Night time is not a time to be walking here.

I saw a story on YouTube recently about a woman who still has the pet turtle she got when JFK was president. Maybe Double Header is still out there. 🐢 🐢

It was a different Turtle than the one I had (Red Eared Slider). They live about 30 yrs in the wild and about 20 yrs in captivity.

And so, in a very real way, Orson was a key figure in the modern conservative movement. Where would we be without Breitbart? What would it be like if Andrew had been working against us? We kind of get a peek at that with the accursed HuffPo that he helped set up. :)

Yes, Bean was hysterical as the rich old guy with the young wife on Two and a Half Men.

He bragged about bagging Tuesday Weld, Joey Heatherton, and Anne Francis.

Jake: “have you seen my game-boy?”

Orson: “No, have you seen my wife?”
