Tie a black rubber band around your beards, friends. "Captain" Lou Albano, professional wrestler, manager, actor, and, with Cyndi Lauper, occasional gas station owner/father, died today at 76.

In tribute to this rotund great, let's take a moment to "do the Mario":

Phew. That dance is like a month of mourning. I feel a lot better now.
