Firefox: It opens the box so you don't have to.

Do you use Firefox?

Do you often wonder if Abe Vigoda is still alive?

Now you can have Abe Vigoda's current status available directly in your browser, using the Abe Vigoda Status Extension!

What the fuck?

[theweaselking.livejournal.com]

Abe Vigoda's website has a "status" link - what he is currently doing, up to the minute.

Usually, it says "Alive - [current time]"

Sometimes it says other funny things, as Abe feels like sharing.

And now Firefox can read it directly - as soon as his server comes back up, because the between the Extension and fark.com linking to the extension, his site crashed under the weight of hits. It currently says
"fark and firefox are killin' me

will be back in a day or so. abe's still alive, by the way (2/15/05 12:18:24 pm PT) "

I'm so tempted. I think I shall.

Isn't that the guy that played Tessio (sp?) in the Godfather? The one that was one of his father's men and tried to side with Bartzini to assisnate Michael?

[theweaselking.livejournal.com]

Indeed.

That's ABE FUCKING VIGODA.

And, currently, he's not dead.

(To see what was at the site before it got slashdotted, check this out:

Of course even more funny is that he, the guy that played bartzini, and the guy that played frank pantagali, all played stupid gangsters working for charles nelson riley in Cannon Ball Run II
