Probably best known, to me at least, for playing Odo on Star Trek DS9

Not quite yet. Give him a few days.

I first knew him as Clayton Endicott III, watching Benson with my mom as I grew up. He played a weasel so very well.

His time as Odo will always be my favorite of his roles.

My children know him as the chef on the Little Mermaid.

RIP, Mr. Aberjonois.
I wish the Ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.

So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world, Frodo, besides the will of evil. Bilbo was meant to find the Ring. In which case, you also were meant to have it. And that is an encouraging thought

For someone who didn't have a lot of major role screen time, his career was long and prolific. RIP.

I enjoyed him on Boston Legal, too.
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

Odo has rejoined the great link.

RIP.
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

56 years. Wow, that's a rarity in Hollywood.

Man,  that's sad.   Really enjoyed him in DS9 (arguably the best Star Trek series )

RIP.

There is no such thing as a "transgender" person.  Only mental illness that should be discouraged.
