One of my favorite lines ever came from Robin Williams, who said that cocaine was God's way of telling certain people they have too much money (or some variation of that).
I agree that Williams has dampered his legacy as of late (and by late I mean most of my lifetime; I don't know if I could forgive *Patch Addams*) but he is still influential. I do like to watch some of his old stand-up routines from way back when. I'm sure that he figured that starring in *RV* pays better than smoke-filled comedy clubs (just as I realized that working for a cell phone company pays better than working in a record store or writing for an alt-weekly).
