Micheal Jeter passed away the other day from natural causes. Around our house he was known as "Mr Noodles brother, Mr Noodle" on Sesame Street. You might remember him from the comedy series "Evening Shade" - but one of his best roles had to be as the cross dressing singing telegram in "The Fisher King".

At the time he was working on a film of "The Polar Express" - the producers seem to think they have enough footage to complete his portion of the film without him. He was one of my favorite character actors and I'll miss him. For more info check out cnn.com.
