The actor who played the Dude's landlord in The Big Lebowski is dead at 75. This will never be on Jeopardy! I just wanted you to know.

Re: 2022 RIP thread
Roger Angell, longtime editor and writer for the New Yorker, passes at 101. He was, IMHO, the best writer on baseball ever ("The Summer Game", e.g.), and he wrote two superb memoirs: "This Old Man" and "Let Me Finish". Highly recommended. Not too likely to show up on J! but he might, and the obit is very well done (I'm sure it's been in the can for a long time).
