My Personal Story with Robin Williams
I worked in showbiz for a quarter-century. One of my early jobs was on the Paramount Studios lot in Hollywood. At that time, “Mork and Mindy” was a new hit (yes, I’m that old) and Robin Williams was an emerging star. Also a big comedic name at the time was Andy Kaufman – I actually attended one of his infamous “Milk and Cookies” live shows.

Why I Dislike Hollywood
Whenever there’s a mass shooting, the mainstream media and different political factions always want to find someone to blame. The recent shootings at a naval base in D.C. promoted the usual declarations when it was pretty evident that the shooter was simply mentally unstable. So, instead of accusing our society of having a problem, why not just fix the issue of letting mentally unstable people not only have access to guns, but have unfettered freedom?

Hooray for #Hollywood
I took the young man that I mentor – Daniel – to a screening of Wreck-It Ralph at The El Capitan Theatre in Hollywood. We loved the movie, but we also loved playing tourist at the Chinese Theatre, looking at all the stars’ foot and handprints – and enjoying all the tourists there, too. I’ve lived here my whole life, but I still get a kick out of it. BTW, Wreck-It Ralph was absolutely TERRIFIC!
