He was an interesting character.

I once picked him up a bus stop and drove him home.

A legend.

Cool guy.

I first "met" Studs (never in person) on a PBS show called "The Great American Dream Machine" in the 70's.... quite a character! RIP, Studs...

Bummer. I figured he would be plenty old - he lived a good long life.
