I only just found out that Paul Newman died aged 83 after losing his battle with cancer. How sad, a good innings though. :sad:

I always thought of him as one of those un-assuming characters who did good deeds for charity and didn't take himself seriously. Now I can't stop humming "raindrops keep falling on my head"! :roll:

It always puzzled me why he got into the likes of salad dressings, then gave all the profits to charity. Actually, who cares really, truly a top man for doing that and also a great actor as well and also a reasonably good racing drive come team owner :thumbright:

I must admit that I never knew about his food business that gave the profits to charity until after he died. He seemed like a really nice, down to earth guy.

Didn't Paul Newman have the most twinkly blue eyes though?
