Rockford files was so cool. He had that answering machine and the awesome trailer on the water.

The answering machine was way before anyone had them in the real world.

But really, he was what made that show cool

He was a good one. Loved Rockford Files as well.

In everything he was in, he was funny and never full of himself.

Robin Williams is dead, apparently suicide.

Depression takes another one. People who can survive anything...ANYTHING...can not always survive depression. It's sneaky and mean and the perception of it has to change. It's a disease. No one would ask for it. No one who suffers from it can just pull themselves up by their bootstraps and put on a happy face. Not even a comedic talent such as Robin Williams. They can try and try and try. Sometimes they can make it. Often they do not.

My heart breaks.

Nanoo Nanoo, Mr Williams. I thought you were one who humor could help.

This is just so fucking sad.

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH heard it in a passing reference as I was flicking radio stations driving home from NJ a few hours ago. currently in motel made sure it had WiFi so I could find out what happened. My favorite comedian Evah, had hoped to get a chance to see him live.

I remember you saying Good Morning Vietnam is one of your favorite movies. I like that one too.

I'm a bit partial to many of his movies, and stand ups, and shows, but most of all The World According to Garp.

Here's something funny for those who care...gotta watch it through, it's so Robin Williams. I'm glad I found it.

Love ya monster!

I'm heartbroken, tbh

O CAPTAIN! my Captain! our fearful trip is done;
The ship has weather’d every rack, the prize we sought is won;
The port is near, the bells I hear, the people all exulting,
While follow eyes the steady keel, the vessel grim and daring:
But O heart! heart! heart!
O the bleeding drops of red,
Where on the deck my Captain lies,
Fallen cold and dead.


O Captain! my Captain! rise up and hear the bells;
Rise up—for you the flag is flung—for you the bugle trills;
For you bouquets and ribbon’d wreaths—for you the shores a-crowding;
For you they call, the swaying mass, their eager faces turning;
Here Captain! dear father!
This arm beneath your head;
It is some dream that on the deck,
You’ve fallen cold and dead.


My Captain does not answer, his lips are pale and still;
My father does not feel my arm, he has no pulse nor will;
The ship is anchor’d safe and sound, its voyage closed and done;
From fearful trip, the victor ship, comes in with object won; 20
Exult, O shores, and ring, O bells!
But I, with mournful tread,
Walk the deck my Captain lies,
Fallen cold and dead.
