This story just keeps getting better.
You know, something has struck me as really cool about Ted. Instead of panhandling and just begging for money or food, and trying to get it without work, he was giving folks something. For a dollar, he was entertaining his audience and using one of his strengths to generate an income. He's obviously got some work ethic.
Go Ted.
It is so good and reassuring to know that Ted has a community he can count on. This is what colleagues do: we have each other's back and we offer a shoulder to lean on. Ted's warm welcome is a reflection of what can happen when people who care, come together.
Sometimes we wonder why bad things have to happen to good people. You have shown the world that good things can happen to good people who were down on their luck.
Ted has found a home. One down; millions of other homeless people to go.
I appreciate your candor Joe. It is a huge leap and, even with immense support and astonishing talent, a daunting challenge. Being in the global spotlight has also granted Ted Williams a heavy dose of responsibility. He's become a symbol of "anything is possible" - an inspiration to all of us. I am hoping that Ted will not only become the v/o actor he aspires to be, but that he can also beat his demons along the way. What a triumph that will be! It is something we can all hope for.
I agree with you, Joe. Mr. Williams has been swept up in a media maelstrom and I would imagine it's been frightening and overwhelming by turns. I can't even begin to imagine how this is affecting him emotionally -- but we need to let him know that we can help him - the SAG and AFTRA can help him find financial guidnace, mental & emotional assistance and advice, and we all must remember that there, but for the grace of God, go us all.
Many of us have had an extended dry spell work-wise -- me included -- but I cannot feel anything but happiness and support for Mr. Williams and I only wish him the best for his life and career. We all know that Don would have picked him up from the airport in his limo, arms and smile a mile wide. We have to help each other... this life doesn't work if we don't.
