Good Morning Vietnam

What a dreary and sad day. Rainy and 61 degrees on an August day is almost unbelievable. Losing Robin Williams is even more so. What a memorable guy. I always thought he was a very good comic and extremely funny. But I've had this discussion many times including last week. I think he was a much better actor. One of the all time greats. "Good Morning Vietnam" was a great movie with one of the great performances of all time.

Throw in the "Fisher King" " Dead Poets Society" and "Goodwill Hunting" and that's 4 great serious movies for the most part. Then, take a look at "Patch Adams" "August Rush" "The Butler" and "Awakenings" which is another awesome 4 movies. None of them masterful comedies but serious movies. He was a GREAT actor!

Krissy went to the eye doctor today. Some kind of iris infection or virus. They gave her steroids. Can't wait to see those pipes!

Steve Ballmer finally closed on the Los Angeles Clippers today. What a great hobby for a retired billionaire. I collect t-shirts myself.

Just heard that Lauren Bacall died. This day isn't right. I'll write more about her tomorrow. She was legendary!

The graveyard burglar is back at it again in Key West. He or she had been quiet since march after being quite active. Hmmm, maybe someone was in the can for a few months!

Later
