    The Longest Yard is my favorite "Classic Burt" movie, Smokey and the Bandit is #2, Boogie Nights for "modern Burt"

    Deliverance is the best movie Burt has been in, but he's totally overshadowed by Jon Voight and Ned Beatty, hell, even by Ronny Cox

                      Paul Allen has got to be one of the richest people to die in quite a while, right?

                        Last year Liliane Bettencourt died (one of the principals of L'Oreal, inherited the company from her father who founded it) - was worth $44.3B when she died.
                        It certainly feels that way. But I'm distrustful of that feeling and am curious about evidence.
