    RIP Omar Sharif

    A bit of a personal thing-my parents' song at their wedding was from Doctor Zhivago.

    Great actor-RIP.

    He was still alive? Thought he died in the 1960s.

    While I didn't think he died that long ago, I would have lost the "Dead/Not Dead" question.

    Good to great. Loved him in Lawrence of Arabia and Zhivago.

    Great, great actor. Lots of good stuff. Everything I say his name, however, it comes out "Omaha Sheriff."

    Looking forward to my day in court.
