Adventures with Robert

[st-crispins.livejournal.com]

Since Robert Vaughn died the other day, I've been receiving so many nice consoling messages because everyone know how I felt about Mr. Vaughn and identified with his alter ego. I've also been seeing various tributes on the mass media and within fandom and a couple of folks have asked me to talk about my own experiences. We're talking decades here, so it's going to take more than one post. I'll try to write about everything but it may take all week so bear with me.

You can find the first entry here

I have left it public so you don't have to be friended to me to read it.

Thanks so much for posting this. Am looking forward to more inside info that gives me a glimpse of the real Robert. I've listened to countless interviews where he went off on "the rant" as I call it. It's like he flipped a switch and became "Robert, the actor" with cliched lines and answers. As you can see, I agree with you on that point.

I also agree about David and Robert being somewhat opposite of Illya and Napoleon. I remember Mrua7 and I had a conversation about this several years ago. Of course, it was only conjecture, knowing the guys only from published interviews. I recently met Lisa Madden, IRL. She was living one town over and I picked up a copy of "The Kuryakin Files" from her home as one of my stories was in it. For the short time we were together, I picked her brain about Norman and everything she told me blew me away. So I really am looking forward to your next post about RV. Thank you.

Happy Birthday!
