General Update
posted by Rich @ 9:16 PM
Salvete Omnes!   Quomodo vales?

It's been a little while since I posted anything up here, so I thought that I would write a quick missive.  We've gotten a few more emails from fans wondering what happened to us.  All I can report at this time is that John and I are still alive, and I hope are going to produce some more shows in the future.

The sad news is that the great Paul Newman left us recently.  I know I am speaking for both John and me when I say that I was a huge fan of his acting talents, his driving talents, and his generous philanthropic nature.  I had the opportunity to meet the man in 1989 or thereabouts.  As some of you know, Paul was a talented race car driver.  I went to see the IMSA racing series at Limerock Park in Connecticut, and Paul was there driving for Bob Sharp Nissan, which he did quite frequently.  He was just walking around the paddock, and I walked up to him, shook his hand, and told him I was a fan.  He seemed like quite the regular guy.

Even though he won his first Academy Award for The Color Of Money, for me his best performance was in Cool Hand Luke, and for me, I'll always remember him that way.

I'm pretty sure that everyone is aware of the great work that he did, and continues to do with his Newman's Own line of fine foods.  The foods are amazing, and the proceeds go to progressive causes.  If you haven't tried any of their products yet, be good to yourself, and others, and try them.  He also has a line of Organic foods called Newman's Own Organics, and they can be found at the same web site as Newman's Own, and at finer grocery stores in your area.

Pottery classes go well for me.  I'm finally able to make things that almost look like pottery.  I'm really liking this, so far.

I guess there's not much more to tell, so be well, hang in there, and we'll see you soon.
