Friday the 13th (1980) The Ending...

The jump scare was directly inspired by Carrie (1976). You know, the hand coming out of the grave.
Adrienne King was also not shown Ari Lehman is his final look (Done by Tom Savini). Her scream was real!

Not gonna lie, I still jump out of my pants during this scene.

Um… Joe Biden’s infrastructure law set aside $25 BILLION for airports and air traffic control.

Now we have a former REALITY TV STAR running the Department of Transportation, begging for another $30 BILLION while planes sit grounded.

Here's a crazy idea: Before demanding another $30 BILLION, how about explaining where the hell the original $25 BILLION went?

And considering this administration's obsession with declaring everything Biden did a failure, I'd especially like to know what's been spent, what's left, and whether any projects were sidelined.

Where the HELL is the press? Why isn't anyone demanding answers? 🤷‍♂️🙄

Again, we just lost another legend today 😔

Skip Hinnant, the actor and voice performer remembered for The Electric Company and as the unmistakable voice of Fritz the Cat, has passed away at 86.

For children growing up in the 1970s, Hinnant became a familiar face through The Electric Company, helping make reading and language entertaining through wonderfully strange characters like Fargo North, Decoder, Supper Man and Jay-Jay.

At almost the exact same time, adults were hearing him somewhere completely different.

His performance as Fritz in Fritz the Cat gave a voice to one of the most controversial and recognizable characters in early adult animation, and he later returned for The Nine Lives of Fritz the Cat.

Some of his most famous roles:
• Fritz the Cat — Fritz the Cat — Voice
• Fargo North, Decoder — The Electric Company
• Sunny the Easter Bunny — The Easter Bunny Is Comin' to Town — Voice
• Schroeder — You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown
• Fritz the Cat — The Nine Lives of Fritz the Cat — Voice
• Pogo Possum — I Go Pogo — Voice
• Ted — The Patty Duke Show
• The Boy — The Electric Company: Love of Chair
• Supper Man — The Electric Company
• Jay-Jay — The Electric Company

Hinnant also originated Schroeder in the celebrated Off-Broadway production of You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown, adding another beloved character to a career that stretched across television, theater and animation.

It was an unusually diverse legacy.

One generation knew him as the man who helped make learning fun. Another heard him as one of adult animation’s earliest rebels. And somewhere between those two worlds, Skip Hinnant became part of American pop culture.

Rest in peace, Skip Hinnant 🕊️
