GOOD [BYE], GORE

How sad it was to hear that GORE VIDAL died yesterday.  He was such a hero for me.  In 2005, I interviewed him at his home in the Hollywood Hills.  Physically, he wasn't doing very well back then, but his mind was sharp as a cooking knife.  Thankfully, his books and plays will live on and on.  A revival of his play, THE BEST MAN, is currently on Broadway with James Earl Jones, John Larroquette, Cybill Shepherd, John Stamos, Kristin Davis and Elizabeth Ashley. Thanks Gore for your wit, wisdom, and overabundant talent . . . .
