Not caring much for it either.....

Also saw where Daryl Ward (Ice Road Truckers) was killed in a plane crash along with his co-pilot.  Ironically, he was on his way to Montana to start filming a show on aircraft crash recovery.

That was a shock.

I had no idea he was 83. Good grief, how time flies, no?

Gee, I watched 'Young Frankenstein' just a month or so ago. There were a couple interesting making-of segments, apparently Wilder not only starred in the movie but he wrote most of it with Mel Brooks only coming in to do the finish 'polishing'.

And when I was a kid he was 'Willy Wonka'.

He will be missed.

RIP
