Title: Actor/comedian Taylor Negron, 57

Another battle lost to the "Big C".

He had one of those instantly recognizable faces, movies, TV, he was all over the place. He played a good bad guy in The Last Boy Scout.

Another odd fact, he is Puerto Rican, Iranian and Jewish...talk about an odd combination!

I am not aware of his politics nor is anything I've read indicate it, it's hard to tell comedic licenese from actual personal beliefs sometime...I think he may have been left-of-center but he certainly was not one of the in-your-face libiots so common in Hollywood, so for that courtesy he deserves a R.I.P. wish.

Reading the article, I then recognized this guy. He was the guy who sold concert tickets/drugs in Fast Times. He was also the "stud" that lasted about 5 seconds while on top of Jennifer Jason Leigh.

RIP.

Still, I'd rather be him than Spicole! Right? ::laughonfloor::

There are worse things to be remembered for than lasting all of 5 seconds on top of JJL, in her prime. At least he had the real deal, as opposed to Brad, only able to "fantasize" about Phoebe Cates. ;D

Says in the bio he was the guy delivering pizza to Spicoli and that's it. Thought the dug out seen was some college jock that looked better than that/ ::facepalm::

... OK, I just read above that he was in FTARH... went to look at a picture of him... still don't recognize him.

Rest in Peace.
