Who knew the ripple effects of an untimely demise?

  2. This reminds me of when I saw Mick Fleetwood signing wine bottles at Costco. I immediately assumed some heartbreak had befallen him and rushed home to google his name. I discovered that he had merely become a wine maker, it was a passion of his and he was successful at it.

    I don't see anything in the link you gave to say Akroyd has fallen. I see him pursuing something new. He's had a long and very successful career, but people try new things, and that's what this looks like to me.

    I love your optimistic perspective. It was only my curmudgeonly one speaking--

  4. I think I'm with Petrea here. If Coppola can make a wine empire, why can't Akroyd have a vodka one.

  5. I've got a little Dan Akroyd story to tell ... Don't worry, I'll practice it a few times before we meet up again.
