I was really saddened to hear the news of Gandolfini's passing. Even though he appeared in numerous roles over the years,his portrayal of Tony Soprano will be a benchmark of acting excellence for a lot of years to come.He had the tough job of leading a stellar cast,and he rose to it admirably.

My Sunday night ritual was to call the Chinese takeout place 25 minutes before showtime. That gave me 10 minutes to get there, and 10 minutes to get back,and a few minutes to get set up in front of the TV. My friend used to think I was kidding when I told them that I planned dinner around the show.
Got yourself a gun,and I got my egg fu yung.

James/Tony, thank you for so many great memories. R.I.P
