Back in the mid 80's RW split up with wife and moved into an attic loft apartment on Castro Street in San Francisco. Well, I went to a party in a lower flat, which was dominated by males of the...."rainbow generation", shall I say, anyway, I was there with my girlfreind and another couple and I think we were about the only hetero's there..at about mid-night RW came in and "went-off", he was so funny. He was in rare unbelvable form...there were maybe 20 people there at the time and it was nothing short of our own "Tony winning" private show....after a while he bagan to pick on us as being the token Hetero's...then after about 45min of this he bacame a "normal person" and we talked one on one for while.

I ran into him again while running in Golden Gate Park some months later and he remembered me and that night! Haven't seen him sence.

Also had a beer with John Mahoney (of Frazier) while he was in a play at the La Jolla Playhouse and staying at a local Hotel. Funny, super nice guy. He was having lunch at the bar alone...so I sat next to him and struck up a conversation.

BUT, last fall I went to the StepenWolf Theater in Chicago and saw a play that was directed by John Malkovich (Hysteria), it was opening night and he was there. I sat 3 seats over from him. I, literaly, rubbed elbows with him before the show in the foyer. After the show I shook his hand and congratuated him on the production.

Those are my stories and I am sticking to em...
