Sad. Yep, he directed some great movies!



Along the same theme, my brother in law had a stress-induced heart attack on Monday.

He is 32, and still alive thanks to some good cardiologists...

Thirty-fucking-two.

Wow, and married 39 years to the same woman. Bravo to true love. Our hearts go out to her.

It's rare to see such true love these days with our disposable lifestyle and self induced destructive ego's ..... One can only hope that we all get to share something even remotely close.

On a side note, he sure did make some epic movies.

Better never to have met you in my dream than to wake and reach for hands that are not there.
