I was surprised to read that he had worked until 2012 and died of Alzheimers. That's a very short time compared with most.
I loved that show whenever I listened to it and I don't even drive.

I was surprised as well, but if he just sat there and chuckled while his brother did the talking, I can see how that might work.

It's also common with Alzheimer's to remember old stuff just fine, it's the new memories that don't stick. They can't find their way home, but can tell you with precise detail how to get to the house they grew up in. Maybe he remembered the car stuff longer than the rest of it.

RIP Mike Nichols. Thank you for directing (and producing, in some cases) so many wonderful films such as (partial list):
2007 Charlie Wilson's War 2004 Closer 1998 Primary Colors 1996 The Birdcage 1991 Regarding Henry 1990 Postcards from the Edge 1988 Working Girl 1988 Biloxi Blues 1986 Heartburn 1983 Silkwood 1971 Carnal Knowledge 1970 Catch-22 1967 The Graduate 1966 Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? Those of us who live in the land of FilmBuffington mark this a very sad day, indeed.

terribly sad for Hughes' family. Imagine what the bowler must be going through, I'm guessing cricket doesn't have the same phenomena of pitchers intentionally hitting batters like we do here.

I just recently got a PD James novel out of the library because she sounded like an author I might enjoy, but I just couldn't get into it, so I returned it mostly unread. Maybe I'll try again
