We're trying to build a monument to show that we were here
It won't be visible through the air
And there won't be any shade to cool the monument to prove that we were here. - Gene Parsons, 1973
Another Renaissance man genius gone. RIP

I wasn't that familiar with his plays but damn, what an actor. RIP to a one of a kind talent.
I don't like country music, but I don't mean to denigrate those who do. And for the people who like country music, denigrate means 'put down.'- Bob Newhart
Shoot, that's sad news.
He was a good drummer also.
Loved his work....RIP Sam

Fabulous actor, often donning that classic (though also slightly anti-heroic) "man personae" which initially died out with the golden age of American New Cinema in the late-70s. However, some of his writing was not only great but outright astonishing.
This leaves us with 45+ yearold 12-yearolds sporting their backwards caps and attempts at lower voice. Well, I guess at least Billy-Bob T. is trying to keep at it.
