Thanks Walt, for the  "Stephan" stories.  While watching various scenes it 
crossed my mind at times there was some definite ad-libbing happening. 
Well,Robin Williams is just bursting with these creative juices/energy and 
is naturally funny anyway.  I think any director would have a hard time 
keeping him under control:Following the script verbatim that is.  I think 
Robin would have gotten such a kick out of seeing this old lady.. lol.  I 
was having as much fun watching and enjoying her as I did the movie.

Go for it!!  Forget about the mess you are in and do it!!  Life is so fuckin 
short!!  Now wouldn't you and Robert rather say to your grandchildren or 
great nieces and nephews that you were on a movie set and met GEORGE 
CLOONEY.   OR..  I ALMOST got to go on a movie set and WOULD HAVE met 
George.  hummmm?

Yes,he does sound like he has an interesting life.  But grass is always 
greener......  I do love the the thought of those ungodly hours though.

Take care,

Bree
