Paul Newman passes.



Like so many others I am mourning the passing of Paul Newman.
I love this clip from Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. When you are in an impossible position would you you give up or take a risky option?

Here in New Zealand we call it Hobson's Choice, between a rock and a hard place.

He was a handsome devil, made great ranch dressing and some good films. He contributed 250 million US dollars to charity from the sales of his products - I'm sure he lost nothing for having done so.

Honour a great life…

Try to be better tomorrow.
