    Dang! Great guy, always brought a very genuine feel to the roles he played. His characters were believable people. A Simple Plan and Frailty are two of his absolute finest.

    President Kennedy spent his last night in Fort Worth. The next morning he made an impromptu speech to the crowd outside the hotel. The boy sitting on a man's shoulders is 8 year old Bill Paxton.

    And so you see, I have come to doubt
    All that I once held as true
    I stand alone without beliefs
    The only truth I know is you.
