Death of a Legendary Bad Guy and a Lower Body Workout

Christopher Lee passed away after living a long life of acting as the ultimate bad guy. From Dracula and Frankenstein's Monster, to the three nippled Scaramanga battling James Bond. In "Serial" he played a character named Skull, a businessman turned leader of a gay biker gang. And of course, there were my favorites, Count Dooku and Saruman in "Star Wars" and "Lord of the Rings" respectively. The passing of a true legend in villainy! Rest in peace.

Today's quote is from Christopher Lee:

"To be a legend, you've either got to be dead or excessively old!"
