I read this sad news this morning. He was such a great actor. Terribly sad. RIP, Bill. :upset:

He was one of a handful of credible actors around, IMO, and I enjoyed his work.
RIP Bill. :sad:

Sad when someone you've kind of grown up with dies, especially when they're, um, younger than you....

He just started a new tv series too. Training Day. I watched an episode like last week. His role in Twister one of my all time faves.

One of my Favorite roles of all time was Him as Coconut Pete in Broken Lizard's Club Dread! "Play Magaritaville!" "I think you are referring to the song I wrote first called Pina Colada Burke! Sheesh, You think Eddie Money has to deal with this ----!" LOL, It cracks me every to me I watch it and never gets old.

He was in so many movies I cant tell you my favorite....."A Simple Plan" comes to mind and I loved his line in "Aliens" as Private Hudson when the crew is weighing their options and he starts screaming "We're f_cked, we're f_cked!!!!"

RIP Bill.

Something like 200 storm chasers got together on Sunday in the heart of tornado country, and created the following with their GPS positions reports in honor of his role in Twister:

I always loved what was his next line: After Sigourney gives her suggestion to "nuke 'em from orbit," Bill goes, "eff-in' A!"
