Great likeness of him in the role. The end of the episode when he reveals his portrait of Maj. Winchester was classic.

The last 20 years went a whole lot faster than I thought it would. I guess we'll just have to hang in there!

Hell, Duran Duran just had an anniversary from their 1st album release April 25th, 1983. If they can, we can.

One of the things I find most interesting about getting old is having life perspective... There are some things that you never will know in youth that only living to an old age rewards.

It sucks that youth is wasted on the young, wisdom comes with age, knowledge comes from experience, and that hindsight is 20/20.
