RIP: Charles "Hammer" Napier - bazookaman - 10-07-2011
While he has been in a TON of movies, I'll always remember him from my childhood as BJ and the Bear heavy, Hammer.

My most oft-quoted and adapted line from any movie is his from the Blues Brothers, after Jake is trying to bluff him for some money:
"You're gonna look pretty funny tryin' to eat corn on the cob with no f***in' teeth!"
Love it!

RIP. I remember him in many roles, Blues Brothers is definitely a favorite and I even remember him in a TOS Star Trek

"I always felt I played myself or some kind of version of myself," Napier told the Bakersfield Californian earlier this year. "If you think about it, old actors probably don't even have a self."

Don't you say a f*cking word!

A great character actor.
I wonder what's the longest time he's ever been without work, or even if there was such a time.
