Joy, and Pain

I listen to the radio on the way in to work in the morning, and they always mention a birthday or other significant event on today's date. When the person is famous, or famously quotable, I try to work it into the daily quote (with a notation as to that person was born or died on this date). For example, on Lou Gehrig's birthday, I used a part of his "Luckiest Man on Earth" speech.

Today is the 50 year anniversary of the death of Ian Fleming - the man who created James Bond. I have always been a Bond fan - he is easily my favorite movie character, so this would be the perfect opportunity to trot out a Bond quote. Except.....

The funniest man ever died yesterday. Any time I tried to be funny, I tried to channel Robin Williams. I have seen all of his movies (even that one about the photo booth) and his stand up. Today, and in the days that follow, he will be eulogized in every media outlet and all over every social media site. I have nothing to add to the conversation. But I still want to say my piece, so here is today's quote. Thank you, Robin Williams.
