Oh captain, my captain.

Indeed. He played Gator Growl one year I was at UF and set the place on fire. If alcohol is the crutch, we all know Jack Daniels in the wheel chair.
But, that same trip, the day before the show he had a meal at a restaraunt my then girlfriend was waitressing in and she got to wait on him. She said he was so coked up he couldn’t even touch the food. The cook was quite offended till she pulled him aside and explained why he wasn’t eating. Apparently it was a problem he wrestled with on and off his whole life. Sounds like it finally won.

Range, energy, talent and a comic genius.
The world is a little sadder today.

I miss you.

It was truly something, to see Robin Williams start out as the hammy, slapstick clown, and truly come into his own as an actor over the years.
Why are so many of our finest entertainers so troubled?

This clip is from Actors Studio on The Bravo Network several years ago. Robin did several improvised minutes with a pink scarf borrowed from a woman in the audience. I’ll remember him this way.

I was distressed at the loss of Philip Seymour Hoffman.
This is shocking.

This is from “The Actor’s Studio”. The young woman whose scarf he was using is James Lipton’s goddaughter. Lipton said it was the best moment on his show.

Has anyone yet suggested that this event was orchestrated by President Obama in order to distract from Benghazi?

Actually it was Inside The Actors Studio. That’s news that the scarf belonged to goddaughter. I always thought it was a stranger. I watched this show regularly for years including what I think was the very first one with Paul Newman.
If Heaven exists, what would you like to hear God say when you arrive at the Pearly Gates?

Goes to show how the human mind can torturer itself. He had it all, was universally loved, but for whatever reason it was not working for him, a shame and a tragedy that we may never understand.
