  2. After reading the gaywired article, I respect and lust after him. Nice to see that he seemed to have been an enlightened human being too.

  4. Jack Wrangler was what we aspired to in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Unlike those he co=starred with - he cheated AIDS and lived longer than many of the others he worked with.

    I am very sad...

  5. I should clarify that when I say he "cheated AIDS" I meant that while many of the stars of his era contracted HIV and died from AIDS, Wrangler did not contract HIV - he was one of the few from that era to survive to today.

  6. And if he had put out that cigarette, he might have lived even longer.
