88 years ago today, John Charles Carter was born. Known to the world as Charlton Heston, his work in the film industry, on the stage and in the political field would make an impression on millions across the world.

Nice tribute. Will Penny is a sleeper of a movie, but an excellent example of the art and of Western movies in general. One of my favorites too.
But I gotta mention, FTA:
"Mr. Heston past away in April of 2008. Though he is gone, he will always be a part of the National Rifle Association. Especially — and fittingly — inside the National Firearms Museum, where a speech to the Washington Press Club inspired the final exhibit. A lasting tribute to Mr. Heston, known as Freedom's Doorway, will forever mark the memories of all who come to experience the history and tradition here at the headquarters of the National Rifle Association."
Who wrote this? TAB? FQ? ? ? ???
The past is like talking about ancient Rome, the time in which something happened. "Passed" is what Charleton did, as in "he passed away" - it is an action.
Sheesh. ::)
