What an awful YEAR for actors and entertainers! John Ritter I never respected or cared for...until he suddenly appeared in SLINGBLADE. That changed everything. For whatever reason, Johnny Cash never entered my small world of music, but knowing that he was significant in his big world of music makes his passing tragic. Sometimes our lives seem like those ducks on a conveyer belt at a carnival, with someone always taking shots at us; we never know who will be next to get hit, and when. (Fortunately, among many other advantages, faith in God gives us assurance of something larger than our little selves, and a focus well beyond the sorrows, tragedies and evils of this often insane world.)
