I wonder if Adam Sandler ever offered him a cameo in one of his movies. Remote Control was a fun show. Mikey how did you do on there?

Lee Kernis, a manager at Brillstein Entertainment Partners who represented Mr. Ober for more than 20 years, said that Mr. Ober was found dead on Sunday. He said that Mr. Ober was last heard from on Saturday night, when he spoke to a friend and complained of a headache and flu-like symptoms. Mr. Ober told the friend that he was going to take something and would see a doctor as soon as possible.

It's his coffin. It's his body. It's his funeral. The cadaver of 72 Whooping Cough Lane - Ken Ober!

She wasn't. As fezident said, the first was Marisol. The second was Karu Wuhrer. By the time I got there, both were gone and there was a third, less attractive, female host who has been forgotten by time.
