CELEBRITY DEATH HAIKU

Just found out that John Vernon, who played Dean Wormer in "National Lampoon's Animal House," died Thursday at age 72.
So I went looking on the Internet Movie Database for material and found one of his lines of dialogue from the film.
And it fit, with no trims or adjustments needed, into the perfect haiku meter.
What better way to write this guy's epitaph than to let his words speak for themselves.
"The time has come for Someone to put his foot down. And that foot is me."
