    Robert Redford, magnetic Hollywood icon known for his roles in classics like ‘All the President’s Men,’ dies at 89.

    The pairing of Robert Redford and Barbara Streisand in “The Way We Were” was inspired. Somehow I got it into my 4th grade mind it was a World War ll movie (not knowing it was a love story with a backdrop of World War ll) so I asked my mom to take me to the old Hopkins Theater to see it. It was...

    Good game Gophers

    All the best to the Bears—hope they run the board and keep the QB poachers at bay—so to speak. Seems like a first rate triumvirate with Wilcox; Harsin & Rivera running the Berkeley football show. Attending the game brought back memories of our Memorial Stadium built in 1924; left behind for...

    True freshmen

    Of course because I know more than PJ and the coaching staff I was already kvetching to my son last night that Karmo needs more playing time—he has that “twitch” speed. We have serious athletes at every level on defense.
