So I get up this morning and put the radio on.
Herman Cain is talking about Robin Williams taking his own life last night.
Apparently he's been bouting with serious depression for years.

What a loss for the comedic world. Although he and I agreed on zero politically, he was/is still a funny sob no matter your slant.

He's going to make them laugh "up yonder way".

Yea E, I think this one caught many by surprise. The man was truly hilarious in so many different roles. Like most Hollywood people it's hard to like their views on many things, but he had some real talent to make people laugh.

Sad story nonetheless.

By far, the most talented comedian I've ever seen and a fine actor.

Uh, he's probably not "up yonder way" if you catch my drift. Pretty sure he violated all Twelve Commandments repeatedly.

twelve?

I just looked up the 'twelve' from Celestine light; I was brought up on the 'ten', so had to check myself

twelve?

Which brings us to the Mel Brooks version: "I give you these fifteen ... [crash] .. ten commandments."

He gave a lot to all of us; unfortunately, he didn't take anything for himself.

Love ya Robin.

I remember that scene! From the "History of the World" movie if I remember.
Harvey Korman was great as the "Count"
