John Stewart on ISIS threat – (8,5 minutes) 4*’s out of 5 — an excellent piece. As you are probably all aware, ISIS decapitated a second American journalist, Steven Sotloff, yesterday. This video comes from the Daily Show a few weeks ago. Joking aside, fuck ISIS and the horse they rode in on.

Robin Williams-Jonathan Winters-Johnny Carson.
In this clip which shows Robin Williams and Jonathan Winters as guests of Johnny Carson on NBC’s original “Tonight Show”. Here we see Williams trying too hard to keep up with Winters, his idol, but to no avail. At that point in both of their careers, Williams couldn’t shine Winters’ shoes. In other words, if Williams was great, Winters was great-er. However, Williams proved, mostly through his career on the big screen, that he was a far more versatile actor than Winters, the latter pretty well restricted to one role and many take-offs from that role – Maude Fricket.

Williams, on the other hand, began his career as Mork, on the TV sitcom “Mork and Mindy”. If he had remained confined, as it were, to that box, then he, like Winters, would have remained relatively un-versatile, the opposite of what he eventually blossomed into. However, through roles like the Fisher King, Mrs. Doubtfire, and the teacher in the flick “Dead Poet’s Society”, just to give three examples, Williams was able to branch out and develop as an actor with many different faces.

To conclude today’s Juicy, we have Nickelback’s “If today was your last day” (with lyrics)

Peace.
