Morons with albums

Well, I heard the other day that veteran actor Robert Downey, Jr. is putting out an album. Are we not ready as a race to let this guy go? Is this an oscar winning actor we are talking about? What are we really missing out on by not having him on the scene? Another Chances Are? Or the more serious roles, like in US Marshals? I hate that dude. (Although, his "In the spoon by noon" monologue leaves me in stitches to this day.)

Robert Downey, Jr. is no Emilio Estevez. The worst thing Emilio ever did was coach a childrens hockey team. We should all be so bad. Remember when you saw Emilio in Mission:Impossible? Didn't you think, "Hey, I didn't know he was in this! Cool! Estevez!" He needs to come back. Whatever he does, from a new Men at Work with brother Charlie, to a guest stint on The West Wing with father Martin, I will be watching, a fan forever. (He was married to Paula for god's sake!) I miss him.

On a seriously different note, I got the Kevin Spacey "Beyond the Sea" album the other day. While the linear notes lead me to believe he may have a bit of a high opinion of himself, I could listen to this album all day. (I actually have.) All hail actors with cool movies and theatre backgrounds!
