I didn't recognize his name, but I know that face, thanks for posting it.

RIP John Vernon. Condolences to his family and friends.

Dean Vernon Wormer: Cut the horseshit, son. I've got their disciplinary files right here. Who dropped a whole truckload of fizzies into the swim meet? Who delivered the medical school cadavers to the alumni dinner? Every Halloween, the trees are filled with underwear. Every spring, the toilets explode.
Greg Marmalard: You're talking about Delta, sir.
Dean Vernon Wormer: Of course I'm talking about Delta, you TWERP!

Godsepeed, Dean Wormer!

Another exchange...

"Greg, what is the worst fraternity on this campus?

Well that would be hard to say, sir. They're each
outstanding in their own way.

Cut the horsesh*t, son. I've got their disciplinary files right here. Who dropped a whole truckload of fizzies into the swim meet? Who delivered the medical school cadavers to the alumni dinner? Every Halloween, the trees are filled with underwear. Every spring, the toilets explode.

You're talking about Delta, sir.

Of course I'm talking about Delta, you TWERP!"

We're no longer on double-secret probation. Rest in peace, Dean Wormer; rest in peace, John Vernon, and thank you for some great memories.

Just damn.

If you want on the list, FReepmail me. This IS a high-volume PING list...

The best advice any college student ever got:

Fat, drunk and stupid is no way to go through life, son.

RIP

Mayor: I don't want to have any more trouble like you had last year in the Filmore District, understand? That's my policy.
Harry: Yeah, well when an adult male is chasing a female with intent to commit rape, I shoot the bastard that's my policy.
M: Intent? How did you establish that?
H:When a naked man is chasing a woman through an alley with a butcher knife and a hard-on, I figure he isn't out collecting for the Red Cross.

He was shot by his own troops in Vietnam.

BTW, he was also the sickening mayor of San Francisco in the original "Dirty Harry."

I also loved that scene where is in his office talking with someone and some worker in the background is trying to find out how to remove the dead, legs straight up, horse that Delta put there...finally, the worker comes in with a chain saw to take care of business.
