The Bigger They Come #2

By Michael Seese

In February, I reported on the plight of a Hollywood (and Tatooine) icon who had been reduced to shilling soda at a local gas station.

Today, at the same station, I saw another celebrity who apparently is strapped for cash as well.

At least I don't have to worry about being mugged when I buy gas here.

The Bigger They Come...

I'd heard that he had fallen on hard times since his cinema career ended. But I was shocked to see just how low this movie icon had sunk. I mean, the guy has worked with Ewan McGregor, Harrison Ford, Jimmy Smits, Christopher Lee, and Liam Neeson, to name a few.

His image was everywhere. He was an icon, an inspiration to people everywhere.

"Look at what he's done for himself. Maybe I can do it, too."

Alas, how times change.

Below is a photo I took in front of a gas station near my house.

 

 


 



Oh, R2, what has become of you? 

I'm so sad.
