Cool Update on Roger Ebert
Pretty tragic story but the guy somehow remains mostly upbeat considering what he's gone and is going through. And do me a favor, spare any yuck yuck remarks about how he looks these days and instead consider the balls it took from him to allow the magazine to print the pictures.
Always been a huge fan and hang out at his website often (enjoy reading his reviews - http://rogerebert.suntimes.com/apps/pbcs.dll/frontpage) http://www.esquire.com/features/roger-ebert-0310 Last edited by DWB1960; 03-02-2010 at 05:44 PM. |

I don't know whether to be inspired by that story or to break down in tears. Maybe both. What a horrific ordeal to go through, and yet he is so positive about it, so focused on the blessings in his life rather than the curses. I've always been a fan, but my admiration for him personally has increased tenfold.

He wrote the screenplay for "Beyond the Valley of the Dolls." He has my eternal admiration and respect.

I am proud of him.
