Happy 68th Birthday to Kevin Pollak! He is known for his roles in the Grumpy Old Men series and A Few Good Men. Prior to that, he was a stand up comedian. During his act he would often do some fantastic impressions. Let’s laugh our way closer to the weekend….
One of my favorite impressions is his Peter Falk. Watch how he can do Falk’s eye!
I’ve heard some good Christopher Walken impressions, but Pollak’s is really the best.
My brother and I always made fun of William Shatner growing up, so when I heard Kevin’s impression, I was on the floor laughing,
Kevin and Shatner are good friends now, but their first meeting was awkward according to Shatner himself
Another great impression Kevin does is of the late, great Alan Arkin
Kevin has some wonderful stories about actors he has worked with. He worked with Walter Matthau on Grumpy Old Men. This is such a great story.
I'm just a guy who likes the classics. I love Old Time Radio Shows. I love Classic TV. I love Classic Movies. I love songs from the "Great American Songbook". I dig songs from the first decade of Rock and Roll. Don't get me wrong, I am not opposed to newer things. My musical taste ranges from Classical to Classic Rock and Country to Rap. I love a good book and am always looking for something to read. I tend to lean toward historical fiction, biographies, mysteries, and more.
I have always believed that our past (and the things we've experienced in it) make us who we are today. That being said, after reading through some old My Space blogs (yeah, that's about how long it's been since I blogged regularly), I decided that I should once again write. Welcome to my blog. I hope you find it interesting, thought provoking, and entertaining in some way.

Great stories! He does the best impressions, so funny!
I will circle back as I can’t watch the video now. I really like him as an actor. I just rewatched That Thing You Do and he was great in that. I thought his role in A Few Good Men was outstanding. Didn’t even know he did stand up.

I was amazed at the Columbo eye when I first saw him.
