OK then. Thanks.
A kidney stone once sent to the hospital where they gave me Fentanyl. They might just as well have fed me skittles, so then they gave me whatever is the next step up and it took me to some other place and some other time, but the pain got left behind.

I've seen about 9 of them. He was most memorable to me in Almost Famous and Charlie Wilson's War, which was a fantastic performance, even though he was second banana to Tom Hanks. It's a mark of a good character actor that he can appear in some otherwise riveting films and you don't remember him in particular; but a look at his Wikipedia page shows how many awards he won.
Sad to loss someone with so much talent
LOL!!!!!!
