Michael Blodgett, RIP

Michael Blodgett, an actor best known for his role as Lance Rocke in the 1970 cult film “Beyond the Valley of the Dolls” who went on to write novels and screenplays, died Nov. 14 at his Los Angeles home of an apparent heart attack, his ex-wife Lanetta Blodgett said. He was 68.

MSTies will remember him as Bob Draper in episode 204- CATALINA CAPER.

L.A. Times obit here.

CT Update

There’s a new entry at Cinematic Titanic, one that features a National Public Radio perennial, Mama Stamberg’s cranberry relish recipe.

More interesting is a neat photo that appears to show some high-tech riffing in progress…looks like Joel, Frank and Josh are riffing in one room while Trace and Mary Jo are contributing from remote locations. Kewl!

Ask Joel

Ever wanted to ask Joel Hodgson a question? You may get your chance with the help of Slashdot.org.

And, a reminder, the FAQ is here. You might want to read it before asking.

Slashdot is a hive of MSTiedom for sure (more Joel-flavored MSTiedom than other flavors, not that there’s anything wrong with that! :smile: ) so it’s a little surprising to read questions that are well-known FAQs and/or are questions about “why” Best Brains did this or did that in the years following his depature. People are asking about Rhino DVDs, for goodness sakes! Joel had no part in those decisions. He can offer OPINIONS, of course, and I don’t doubt he has them. But asking him WHY something happened at Best Brains after 1993 is very likely to elicit a shrug. He wasn’t there.
