Actor Stacy Keach has passed today at age 85. He's known for many roles, but the one I am most fond of is as Mike Hammer.

I always liked what he brought to a role, but I came to appreciate him fully when he brought what he brought to the role of Ken Titus on "Titus". I have never laughed so hard at a completely despicable and irredeemable character in all of my life! I don't think anyone else could have done that and not have made me sour at it all. That's what they call "chops!", I reckon.
And the weird thing is, I watched some clips of him as Ken being Ken (either the day before I heard he died or maybe a few days before) and was still laughing a quarter of a century later. I even thought at the time, "I'm glad he is still with us".Comment
