This morning I was reading my Sunday morning copy of Parade Magazine and was totally bowled over by the cover story.  It featured the once-troubled and very much addicted (but very talented) actor Robert Downey, Jr., who I liked a lot in such movies as Chances Are and Chaplin, but whose relationshops and career nearly went down the proverbial toilet because of his alcohol and drug addictions.

I took the liberty of going to the Parade website to get the URL of the article so other members could read it: After fighting drugs and demons, Robert Downey says 'I rose from the ashes'    I really found it worth reading.

Iron Man was such an awesome movie and it's good seeing him clean. Have you guys seen the incredible hulk? The ending was amazing. but like everyone says so many celebs have addictions these days, it's like what the world lives off of. we will all fall and stumble, it's how you get up that shows your true character.
