Every time someone posts one of these lists and doesn't include World According to Garp, I sigh a weary little sigh.

Every time I see you post about your weary little sighs I have the urge to send you a hand written letter that says "YOU POST ON A PEARL JAM MESSAGE BOARD."

I'd probably sign it "love" though and not "best regards."

I feel like he is truly ignorant to how debilitating depression really is. He may have apologized for saying it but I believe he meant to call him a coward.

nice to see that ed's growing his hair back out

Ed's hair length correlates to the quality of Pearl Jam albums.

I saw Garp when it came out. I don't know what my dad was thinking taking me to see that. I was like 7. Maybe because it had the guy from Popeye in it.

I have fond memories of The World According to Garp. It was a staple on Cinemax and they almost always played it right before the soft porn started.

these guys are great..happennings...theyre showing dead poets society tomorrow night and good will hunting the night after in a parksquare in dublin
gonna go see DPS

Did Rush Limbaugh really say RW killed himself because he had a leftist attitude? Or is that just a made up internet story?

TRANSCRIPT

RUSH: So our last caller from Des Plaines, Illinois, wanted to know, "What is the politics in the coverage of the suicide of Robin Williams?" Well, I believe there is some. But I don't think that the politics is driving it. I think there was, on the part of media and Hollywood, genuine affection for the guy that is driving it, but there is politics. If you notice the coverage is focused on how much he had, but it wasn't enough.

"He had everything, everything that you would think would make you happy. But it didn't." Now, what is the left's worldview in general? What is it? If you had to attach not a philosophy but an attitude to a leftist worldview, it's one of pessimism and darkness, sadness. They're never happy, are they? They're always angry about something. No matter what they get, they're always angry.

They are animated in large part by the false promises of America, because the promises of America are not for everyone, as we see each and every day. I mean, right here there's a story on the Fox News website. Do you know, it says right here, that the real reasons that Robin Williams killed himself are he was embarrassed at having to take television roles after a sterling movie career.

He had to take movie roles that were beneath him, sequels and so forth, and he finally had to do television just to get a paycheck because he was in so much financial distress. He'd had some divorces that ripped up his net worth, and he had a big ranch in Napa that he couldn't afford any longer and had to put up for sale, and a house in Tiburon that he couldn't afford anymore. This is all what's in the Fox News story.

He had it all, but he had nothing. He made everybody else laugh but was miserable inside. I mean, it fits a certain picture, or a certain image that the left has. Talk about low expectations and general unhappiness and so forth. Right here it says that one the contributing factors to Robin Williams deciding to kill himself was "survivor's guilt." It's in the headline.
