Just a heads-up: there’s a really beautiful little article on the late Paul Newman in today’s Slate.
Read it here.
Inane comment: I love Paul Newman!
It’s beautiful…
“In an era in which nearly everyone feels entitled to celebrity and fortune, Newman was always suspicious of both. He used his fame to give away his fortune, and he did that from some unspoken Zen-like conviction that neither had ever really belonged to him in the first place.”
Eat that, pussycat! ;-)
Hi Esther,
I don’t really want to comment on Paul Newman but I reckoned that if I commented here you’d probably get it and no one else would. And I’m not sure if I’ve got an in-date email address. You know a while ago you said “Did you know you look like… [some ancient possibly literary dude]?” and then you also sent me a picture of said dude and I did look a bit like him? Well do you remember who it was? And was he in any way religious? I’m just about to start writing a blog about a pilgrimage I’m going on to Jerusalem and my partner in pilgrimage suggested that we could use religious look-alikes in our blog art. Incidentally I also have chosen Misty. A good look, I think.
Also, how are you? Can you tell me any interesting developments that I should know about?
Love Mikey
