Wow, shitty week for Argentinian comedy. Marcos Mundstock of the comedy/music group Les Luthiers was pronounced dead today. The comedy of Les Luthiers is fairly pun-based so it's difficult to appreciate in other languages but I found these subtitled videos. Mundstock is the bald one.

Really liked Khan from what I saw of him. Sad loss.

Took me a long while to publish this one because it strikes me so personally and, besides, over a month went by before I even heard of it. Actor, writer and filmmaker Atiio Polverini passed on at almost 90 years old. He starred in a short film called Mateo that I did back in 2010 and he also directed the wonderful gaucho western Bairoletto, story of a rebel and wrote a bizarre cult Horror film called The House with Seven Tombs. He was a wonderful person with a tremendous imagination and a love of language and friendship. I post a little of his work below.
Florian Schneider, 73

The Complete Short Stories by Mark Twain
The (New) World
Tom Lupo, poet and late night radio legend who introduced the public to some of the best Argentinian rock bands like Sumo, Soda Stereo, Patricio Rey y sus Redonditos de Ricota and many others. Unfortunately, back in 2015 he had been hit by a drunk driver (who got off outrageously easy being the son of a judge) and his health had been a wreck ever since.
Jerry Stiller died.
I'd just watched the "You want a piece of me?! You got it!" episode last night. One of the funnies things I've ever seen. RIP.Quoting [ETM] (view post)

Wha Happened is a bit I play frequently.
It's also a bit I say frequently out loud, nobody gets it, but it amuses me anyway.
