Adam Sandler - Rotten Tomatoes

Happy Birthday Adam Sandler. Really enjoyed many of his movies even if they often take little or no thought to follow nor understand.

Yes! My son mentioned him to me today as today is also my son's (50th) birthday. 9/9/69 in his case. I sent him an AARP application. In five short years he can buy into a 55 and older senior community...makes me feel old...

My nephew loves Adam Sandler movies as well and has for years. And 50th Happy Birthday to your son.

Thank you!

Arnold Palmer, Happy Birthday.

Stephen King: Alcoholism, Drug Addiction and Fame - Detox To Rehab

Why Stephen King can'''t remember writing one of his most famous books.

It looks like he turned away from drugs in the 80s.

Maybe so but the drugs he took, particularly in the fabulous amounts he used, caused permanent brain damage and thought processing and cognitive issues which are quite evident from his conduct these days.

Not sure what you mean?

He books of late are quite good.

Remember that I am a librarian by training so have read a lot of books over the years. And I have had a lot of free time on my hands simce June of 1991.
