Gettin' old, but still a hippie at heart...


That's a sad passing:
Quote:

Jonathan Winters, the wildly inventive actor and comedian who appeared in such films as "It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World" and "The Loved One" and played Robin Williams' son on the TV show "Mork & Mindy," has died. He was 87.

Winters died Thursday evening of natural causes at his home in Montecito, California, according to business associate Joe Petro III.


I wasn't a big fan, but I could recognize the talent and appreciate his hard work.

Had some great moments, to be sure. Don't think he was all there for most of his life, and probably wasn't anywhere there for the last part.

Weird, as I thought he had passed away some time ago, and then saw him briefly in some interview or some such. He was far more lucid and funnier than I had remembered. Must have been one of his 'good' days.

Curious guy. Wonder if we'll ever know more about his life, now that he's gone.

He was a great stand-up comedian in the 1950's and 1960's. He was often on Ed Sullivan, Johnny Carson, Carol Burnett and many game shows. His role in It's A Mad Mad Mad Mad World is pure genius. He lived a good long life and was respected by his peers. That's a good epitaph for any man.
