Nonagenarian threat to America expires

From Joe.My.God, a portrait of the kind of man Oklahoma state representative Sally Kern says is more dangerous than a Muslim terrorist:

- Tony winning costume designer Alvin Colt died of natural causes on Sunday at age 91. Colt created the costumes for more than 50 Broadway productions in his career, winning his Tony for Rodgers and Hammerstein's 1955 show Pipe Dream. He received Tony nominations for five other shows. For the last 15 years Colt had costumed the spoof show Forbidden Broadway. Costuming legend Bob Mackie, who considered Colt his mentor, said upon Colt's death, "Alvin could do a costume that would walk on stage and get a laugh before the actor even opened his mouth." Colt was preceded in death by his partner of 47 years, Broadway actor Richard Tone, who died in 2004.
