I was so sad to hear this news today. Not only was he one of our all time great entertainers, he gave so much in his personal life to charitable causes.

I have adored Paul Newman for years. One thing you can say is that guy really lived his life, and Good God... What a man. Damn, I say. Damn.

I found out on Saturday night when I was at Pokeno. I did read in the papers that he had cancer. I have been reading all the articles regarding his life, family, movies and, of course, his charity causes. It's funny that MotelSixx brough up "Slapshot" because not too many articles bring that movie up when they discuss his career. They only reported on his oscar performances. I loved him in that movie. I also love Disney's, Cars, when he did the voice of Doc. What a great human being.

My soon-to-be stepson is a hemophiliac. This past Summer he went to Paul Newman's 'Hole in the Wall' camp. The man did great things and will be sorely missed!

I just thought he was a good everything....a good actor, a good man. I'm sad that he is gone and sorry no one like him is here to take his place. When I heard he passed on I wasn't surprised just very sorry and sad.
