Rob Reiner directed one of my favorite movies, too: This Is Spinal Tap. That film was radically different from Bill's two favorites, which goes to show Reiner's versatility, as well as his genius as a director.
I should also note that Reiner was respectful and gracious when he commented on Charlie Kirk's assassination. Trump was never going to be respectful and gracious in responding to Reiner's death. One might have hoped he wouldn't comment at all, but that was never going to be the case, either.
Thank you for mentioning the Heather Cox Richardson substack! It is an amazing effort. Six very long posts a week, probably fortified by nine oz Chardonnay glasses, with all her disparate and seemingly disconnected stream-of-consciousness typing pointing back to one thing: Trump is a dictator. Fact checking? Who has time? The torrent of words must keep flowing, unimpeded.

I've got a mouth on me too, but I occasionally shut it.
Also a big "This is Spinal Tap" fan. It also included a stay-with-you-forever line: "It's such a fine line between stupid and clever."
Thank you.

I have a policy. When someone dies, can we wait (at least) until they are buried Before dumping on them? ie Show A Little Class!!!
I agree with every word. Nothing more to add.
