I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

I just saw that too. One of those "oh, that guy" actors who's been around forever. Or at the mid 70s we switched careers from stock broker to actor.

Sad, he was a great musician with an incredible career, but I was sure he was already dead

I didn't remember him being in the show.

Yeah he was only around for a few episodes. If I remember right they dropped him cause they had too many characters to write for and actors to pay. Plus his nickname wasn't a good idea. It's a shame I liked him.

Yeah, I can’t imagine network TV in the 70s keeping a black character named Spearchucker around from week to week.
