Today's headlines read:
Acting legend Paul Newman dies at 83
the Academy-Award winning superstar who personified cool as the anti-hero of such films as "Hud," "Cool Hand Luke" and "The Color of Money" — and as an activist, race car driver and popcorn impresario — has died. He was 83.

Newman died Friday after a long battle with cancer at his farmhouse near Westport, publicist Jeff Sanderson said. He was surrounded by his family and close friends.

In May, Newman had dropped plans to direct a fall production of "Of Mice and Men," citing unspecified health issues.

My favorite movie Cat on a Hot Tin Roof.

I don't think is weird. Is common that a lot of people are now writing, remembering and wishing him well in heaven's heaven.

Well said Alex! RIP Mr. Newman, you were a class act and a kind human being from my understanding of you. The world lost a good man today.

I hope that his charity work will be continued through his estate. He was a great man, at least his suffering is over.

Loved him in Cool Hand Luke and The Hustler. When I read John D. McDonald's Travis McGee series way back when, I always imagined Newman in the role. Cool personified.
