Benji Gregory

'Alf' star Benji Gregory found dead inside his car at aged 46

Benji's loved ones told the news outlet that they believe the actor went to the bank to deposit residual checks with his dog and accidentally fell asleep while sitting inside his car. And due to the boiling Arizona summer heat, that can often reach over 100 degrees, he suffered from a fatal heat stroke.

accidentally fell asleep?!
It's never who we want it to be, is it?
My brother was named after that guys character on Alf.
With all due respect, the service dog is kinda supposed to take some initiative at some point there

My sister is named after her character in Robert Altman’s 3 Women. What a bizarre day for the Vanderbilt family.

What a life

My third favorite Ruth from my youth.

I had three bus drivers when I was in secondary school, two of them women. Both were named Ruth.

Also, in junior high, the study hall monitor was named "Ann." In senior high, the study hall monitor was also named "Ann", but a different person. They shared the  SAME last name. That last name is also MY last name (as far as I know, none of us were related, though it's possible the two of them could have been.) My name is not totally uncommon, but it sure ain't as common as Smith or Rodriguez. (If you know it, please respect my privacy and don't type it here). How's that for fucking weird?

But anyway, I digress. Dr. Ruth, a life well lived. RIP.
