Man, what's gonna happen to Mr. Jingles now?
Nah, this is a damn shame. He was a solid character actor and way to young to leave this earth. I really enjoyed his brief turn as an obnoxious defense attorney in The Gift.

That's really sad news. He was a fine character actor.
I remember seeing an interview with on television -- ET or something -- where he revealed he was HIV positive.
Reading the article, it sounds like it wasn't the HIV/AIDS that was the cause of death, though.

That's really sad. I just watched Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas a couple of days ago, and he was memorable in that, as he was in Jurassic Park III, Patch Adams, Green Mile, Air Bud, etc.

Man, that sucks!
While never a superstar, he was always visible in many projects. He was very much the "Oh, it's that guy," kind of actor when you saw him on screen.
