Paul Newman: 1925-2008

Wow. This blows me away. Paul was an amazing man. This is a brief bio from Yahoo:
"Paul Newman was a husband, a father, a grandfather, a philanthropist, an activist, a veteran, a race car driver, a director, and, for over 50 years, one of the greatest film stars in Hollywood".

There is a great article about Paul Newman from Yahoo.

As a kid, some of my favorite movies include Paul. The Sting may have been one of my favorites. I remember always trying to catch it whenever I saw it on the TV Guide. When I got a little older, I was able to catch The Color of Money. I haven't seen the prequel, The Hustler yet.

I have been a fan of his salad dressings as well. I like them and the fact that all profits go to charity.

Paul Newman lived a great life and will be missed. Rest in Peace Paul. The world was better with you here.
