Actor Robin Williams has died, the Marin County Sheriff’s Office confirmed Monday.
He was 63.
The Sheriff’s Office was called to a home in unincorporated Tiburon just after noon Monday, the office stated in a news release.
The class warfare in “Richard Cory” comes screaming out in the final verse.
Anyway, this Vietnam vet loved “Good Morning, Vietnam!”
FWIW
Naw, pretty sure he's dead.
Good Will Hunting…..
His performance in Good Will Hunting was outstanding, earning him a well-deserved Oscar. Politics aside, he was not an awful actor.
So many comedians seem to struggle with depression, addiction and suicide. I wasn’t a fan of Robin Williams’ act, but he brought a lot of entertainment and humor to millions of people. What a pity that he wasn’t able to find a better answer.
Bump to the last part.
“Its soooo easy to sum up a person ‘s failings as their whole being. And depression is an illness.”
Drug-induced ‘illness’.
Some lines from his early days when he was doing standup:
“What do chairs think about all day...here comes another a$$hole, Cocaine is God’s way of telling you you make to much money,Let’s put Mr.hamster in the microwave...pop goes the weasel!
Actually Good Morning Vietnam all his lines on the radio were improvised. They basically said “Go for it”. And he did.
Nanu, Nanu. RIP
Clinical Depression is certainly not drug induced.
“Naw, pretty”
No. Ugly.
Ditto.
Hope he finished filming his scenes for the latest "Night at the Museum" movie.
Goooooood Morning VIETNAM !!!!!!
Don’t worry. Be happy.

From back in the Reagan days beore the country got so screwed up.
Bump.
Never did a drug in my life. Stopped drinking years before any depression showed up.
If you haven’t been there, please don’t make generalizations.
Lotta drugs in Marin county and LA.
“Clinical Depression is certainly not drug induced.”
Drug induced depression Is DRUG INDUCED.
RW attributed his depression to his use of drugs. Please do your research.
Maybe he should have tried out for a radio show?
