IN A WORLD. . .THAT'S TOTALLY UNFAIR. . .

We mourn the passing of a great voice.

Don LaFontaine: The Voice

And a little levity to bring the mood up.

Having worked in Radio and doing some of the stuff he's done, I can tell you it is not near as easy as he makes it out to be. The guy was blessed with the perfect voice, but it's his ability to use it that made him a success.

I thought it was cool that they used him in the fake trailers for Tropic Thunder.

The comedy routine was classic. His ability to jump between voices was awesome. That made my "Monday".

That stinks.

How cool would that have been to have a voice mail recording from him?
From the video he appears to have been a very nice guy.
