Default Peter Falk passed away on Thursday.

We lost another famous person from the 70's. Peter Falk passed away Thursday. It is amazing how the passing of famous people make you look at your life and where you were when they became famous.

I remember watching Columbo on a console TV when I was younger. His "stray" eye made you uncomfortable but strangely also made you watch and want more. Maybe not everyone liked his movies, but I came to like the attitude of Columbo.

It was so much of who he was, to those of us who came to love his acting roles.

I always liked him, his crumpled, confused look in Columbo was great.
