Sadly, Patrick Swayze passed away today.  I enjoyed his films.  Most remember him for "Ghost" or "Dirty Dancing", but I choose to remember him in "Red Dawn," "Road House," and "Point Break."  The cry "Wolverines!!!" still echoes in the depths of my teenage memories.

The ultimate in bad-assery was when Swayze's character literally tiger-claw's this bad guys throat out in "Road House."  I assure you, the bad guy really had it coming.  The closest image I could find was from this NY times page.

Cancer sucks and it isn't fair.  Rest in peace, Patrick Swayze.
