    Money won is twice as sweet as money earned.

    Reggie Dunlop.

    My favorite Newman role.

    This just stinks. Prayers and condolences to his family.

    Just last night I flipped past an old movie with him and Julie Andrews....just in time for a classic old movie screen kiss. God, that man could do a movie kiss.

    83 is a lifetime, but still so sad. RIP to one of the greats. I'm going to hum 'Raindrops Keep Fallin on My Head' all day.

    I don't ever remember him doing a bad job in any movie.

    Hell, he was good just with his voice in "Cars."

    RIP, indeed.

    I feel the need to go eat 50 hard boiled eggs.
    RIP. My world has been getting a little less fun with each passing day and it took a big dip with this news.

    The last of the true movie stars, who was also a superb actor. Lived one hell of an enjoyable and admirable life. A sad day, but Newman really got the maximum possible out of his alloted time on earth.

    When I was a senior in high school (1990), for some reason, the entire school met in the auditorium to watch a movie. The film of choice: Cool Hand Luke. It might have been the first time most of the kids watched a movie made before 1978. It was a huge hit that day and remains one of my favorite movies to this day. Newman's egg-eating scene is a classic.

    It seemed like a good, round number.
