'Diff'rent Strokes' actor Gary Coleman dies

Another acting legend died today.

Former child star Gary Coleman - best known for playing Arnold on the sitcom 'Diff'rent Strokes' in the '70s and '80s - died today at the age of 42 following a fall in his home.

Millions of Americans who are my age fondly remember Arnold's catchphrase, "Whatcha talkin' 'bout, Willis?" It was Coleman himself who coined this phrase - as part of the creative genius he displayed at an early age.

The actor died of an intracranial hemorrhage that occurred when he fell at his Utah home.
