43. I got to work with him

I was in the original Pee Wee HBO show from 1981, playing one of the singing neighbours, Mr. Jelly Donut. It was a great experience watching that incredible show develop in such a relatively short time. Paul had a vision of what he wanted to do, and by damn he did it!

That's unfortunate. Thoughts to his loved ones. aocommunalpunch Jul 2023 #1
