1. Just heard that on CNN.

So long, Curly.

[Left Brain]

14. My favorite Curly line:

"I crap bigger than you."

So long, Jack. You'll be missed.

[SeattleGirl]

19. That's my favorite line, too.

LOL! Yes Jack, you'll be missed.

3. Oh sad

:-(

[Radio_Lady]

4. Born in 1919; same year as my mother. Sad. RIP, Jack. Sorry to hear this.

Mom died in 1991. Jack lasted fifteen years longer than my mother did.

13. My dad was born in 1919...but died in 1980

way too soon...

[Radio_Lady]

23. Right. I wish both of my folks had taken better care of themselves.

They both smoked, which was the biggest factor, I believe.

It's been pretty lonely without them.

BTW, this was the week they were both born. Mom on November 9, 1919, and Dad on November 11, 1911. I'm burning a little candle in their honor during these three days. I do it ever year. No one else remembers them, because I'm an only child.

5. Bugger...

... that's a shame... still... he had a good innings... and produced some great work along the way...

[Haole Girl]

6. He seemed like he would live forever, didn't he?

Remember this moment?


When Jack Palance won the best supporting actor award
in 1991 for his role in "City Slickers," he demonstrated
his virility by performing one-armed pushups on stage

[SeattleGirl]

7. I cracked up when he did that.

What a guy!

[Left Is Write]

8. I hate to say it, but my favorite Jack Palance role...

was as host of Ripley's Believe It Or Not.

I loved the way he delivered that line.

[Adenoid_Hynkel]

9. he scared me to death as a kid on that show

when he narrated the segment on the sun eventually swallowing up the earth
his delivery was creepy

[Left Is Write]

11. Yes, it was creepy.

That's what made it so good. :D

[Zomby Woof]

25. Believe it...

or NOT! In that classically raspy menacing voice! :D

[InvisibleTouch]

15. Same here!

That was a great show.

[SlavesandBulldozers]

22. oh yeah!

[Blue-Jay]

10. He was bitten by Zombie Vigoda.

[bertha katzenengel]

12. Oh, no.

Bet he's fighting someone in heaven over who can do the most one-handed push-ups.

RIP Jack.

[kwassa]

16. You need to remember the early Jack Palance

his greatest years were earlier

"Requiem for a Heavyweight"

[caty]

17. Over the years....

He had a great and varied career.

[NC_Nurse]

18. He was great in Bagdad Cafe

one of my fav movies. :-)

[SeattleGirl]

20. One of mine too.

His character in that movie is deliciously slimey. :-)

[SlavesandBulldozers]

21. RIP Jack

s true maverick!

[Radio_Lady]

24. I'll never forget his one-armed push-ups!

[bigwillq]
