A number of years ago I read an article written by a US soldier who had served in Iraq or Afghanistan (I can’t remember which).
He was writing about his experiences over there. One day he went into the mess hall, and everybody was gathered in one corner of the room. So he wandered over to see what was going on.
And there was Robin Williams, telling jokes.
RIP, Robin Williams.
I met Robin Williams at the country club where I managed the bar. Was a smallish birthday party for his mom, I think. Anyway he came up to the bar where me and a cocktail waitress was standing. She looked at him and said....you look familiar and he said Im Robin Williams. She looked at me and I looked at her and we both looked at him and said nuh uh. He laughed and said really I am. We said nuh uh. He pulled out his drivers license and showed us and then walked off. We still werent sure whether to believe him or not. He was dressed in a suit and tie and was really low level energy. It just really didnt look like the Robin Williams we knew. Afterward we said....hmmm, guess it was him. Lol
