Happy Birthday, Robin Williams, 58 years old today.

The term "genius" gets tossed around indiscriminately, but in his case, it fits.

3. Happy birthday Robin!

He is a sweet man. I worked on a pediatric oncology floor at UCSF and every Christmas Robin comes to the hospital to spend time with the kids. He will spend the whole day there and see every child that he can (those not on strict isolation). He's very charming and warm.

4. He hasn't aged well

I guess drug and booze does that to you.

6. Scary to think how brilliant he would be without frying and pickling some percentage of brain cells.

I'm not crazy about some of his stuff, but the speed of his thought processes sure is impressive.

His birthday is actually July 21st.

Same is mine. ;) But I'm sure he won't mind the early greetings.
