I just found out that Stan Winston died Sunday.

Celebrities die all the time and I usually don't give a rat's ass.  This may be the first time I was actually saddened by the passing of one.  I won't waste time singing his praises.  He was a god among men.

Hopefully clicking this link explains who he was and why he is so important not just to the motion picture industry but to me personally.

So long Mr. Winston and thanks for the memories.
