He Grinned Like a Baby but Bit Like a Gator


The Sting is one of my all-time favorite movies. Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid and Cool Hand Luke aren't far behind.

Which is why it hurts like hell to hear that Paul Newman -- one of Hollywood's truly great leading men, a movie star's movie star -- has died at the age of 83.

Newman was immensely talented, great-looking, an adventurer, compassionate and caring toward his fellow man, and most of all -- just plain cool.

They really don't make them like him anymore.

And maybe that's what makes the loss that much tougher to take.
