Robert Duvall has died.
He spent a good chunk of the last part of his life tango dancing.
I loved his performance in Lonesome Dove, and still drawl "Lorrie, darling..." under my breath from time to time.
She's not just a blob of energy, she's also a 14-year-old hormone bomb.

Robert Duvall has died.
I was just thinking about his movie The Apostle yesterday. I didn't realize he was 95. That's a good run for anybody.

He was wonderful in "Tender Mercies".

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I woke up this morning with all the clocks in my kitchen flashing the time, and my heat not working. So, power outage during the night, and I assumed that had done something to the furnace. I called the HVAC people, and they sent someone out. Turned out the power outage and the heat were unrelated -- the problem with the heat was just that the batteries in the wall controller unit thingy had died. So, $60 to have someone sent out to change the batteries. He did some kind of safety check of the system while he was here, and said that everything looked good, so I guess I got something out of it.
