“Why aren’t we all doing weird stuff like Bill?”
"
In recent years, 64-year-old Murray has become as legendary for his wonderfully “weird” performances off-screen as he has for his performances on it."
During the last five months alone, the “Lost in Translation” star has crashed a Charleston, S.C., bachelor party where he dispensed love advice; showed up at a Los Angeles fan’s “Bill Murray Ice Cream Social”; danced (surprisingly well) to Lil Jon’s “Turn Down for What” at a suburban house party; collected tickets at a minor-league baseball game; and photobombed an engagement shoot.
“After dinner, he got up and brought the dishes into the cleanup,” says chef Brett McKee, who cooked up supper for the party. “He’s about as down-to-earth as they come.”
“I don’t have a plan and I don’t fit into anyone else’s plan. There are moments and sometimes a moment appears and you step in.”

Hey Lem, nice blog.
Regards, Bill M.
ha ha. good one.
The reason most of us don't do those kind of things is that we would get arrested, as we cannot play the celebrity card.
Ol' Bill is looking pretty youthful for a 64 year old, eh?
Maybe Bill Murray's trying not to end up like Robin Williams.
He cleans up. I like that.
Occasionally I make a surprise visit to my own life. Nobody seems to notice and what a mess! Too much junk, too much going on, and way too many souls meandering around like the undead. I immediately go back to the peace of the internet where I control the world with a single finger.
Hmm, a single finger - I guess that could work in the real world, too.
We need another Michael Haz post!
Bill is having a good time in life. Whatever strikes his fancy I suppose.
He's a raging alcoholic. That explains most of this stuff.
Drinking is all the rage in some quarters...
Raging alcoholic huh?
Sounds like a ball. I majored in the subject in college, but I never expected it paid so well, so I dropped out. I wonder if they still do it the same way, or do I need to learn some new technology now - maybe take some refresher courses.
A drunk I used to work with put it thusly "Do you want to be a liver or have one?"
You make the call.
And around here one has bili-bob-rubin.
I took one of those surveys to determine whether I'm an alcoholic and one of the questions was: "Do you ever do things while drinking that you would not do otherwise?"
And I was all, like, OF COURSE, YOU DOPE! THAT'S WHY I DRINK!!!
Bill Murray is not an alcoholic. They go to meetings. He is a drunk.
An old school shanty Irish drunk. Great to hang around with and listen to his stories for the first two hours.....after that....not so much.
Trust me I know.
I see on in the mirror every morning.
BTW, epic smack down at TOP.
Murray has probably learned how to get beyond fear.
I say that as a fearful fellow. Such foolishness -- fear.
Hey bagoh, if there weren't too much going on in your life you wouldn't be bagoh!
Definitely having problems at the fetid pesthole. Must be bad to send over people to drive comments and clicks.
People have moved on to Turley and are enjoying themselves. Why not leave them alone.
We need another Michael Haz post!
Soon, I hope. Motorcycling and a gubernatorial campaign have taken all my spare time, it seems.
I was casting no aspersions on Murray, I've always liked him. Watched What About Bob the other night, "I SAIL!" But, I will amend my remarks to say he is an Irish drunk, redundant as that is. His new flick w/ Melissa McCarthy looks good. Plays a drunken gambler, not a stretch!
Haz, You have my vote. I don't like Walker. I LOVE what he did w/ the unions. But, I see him as a smarmy glad hander. I did vote for him in the recall and will vote for him this time as well. Just not a fan.
I comment @ TOP but only to bust Annie, Inga, or Crack's balls. I stay away from Meade, so as not to attract his attention here. I would say I average 1-2 comments a month.
Hey, we all have our little hobbies, I suppose. Throw the bums a dime, in your prime, and so on.
Spins, you ever see "Murder, My Sweet"? About a PI, name of Phillip Marlowe who runs into a character named "Amthor".
Just thought you should know.
Disposable income, I guess. Or lack thereof.
Murray's new movie "St. Vincent" got a favorable review in "The Tablet" which is the Catholic newspaper distributed at Mass.
I was surprised. I will catch it when it hits Net Flicks.
The Meltdown Part II is happening over at Mealticket's place [1].
That's nice.
I mean, bless her heart.
No, wait, that's still not what I meant to write.
But I get tired of repeating the same Joisey phrase, so I can't be bothered now. Those of you who know, know.
Sixty, Thanks for the lead, I'll check it out.
Liberal tolerance of diversity and free speech. Good stuff, good stuff.
Meltdown Message from mother.
Ironic, I just watched a documentary on John Waters muse, Divine.
