...play old men on the screen. I don't want to be just sitting in chairs or walking slowly up and down. I'm 83 years old, but I'm as healthy as one can be, and still a fine-looking gentleman. I can fence, I can drive a car. But no one offers me any work. No one. Absolutely nothing to work on. The Screen Actors Guild, only if I press them, will they send me news about what's going on.

And for all the current ills of megabanks like Washington Mutual and Wachovia, the national banking system still enjoys a measure of stability far greater than in the 1930s--or even the '20s.
