At this rate, Ghostbusters 3 will be about capturing the ghost of Bill Murray.

I thought that is "REALLY" what it's going to be about. I heard he would only do it if they killed him and he was a ghost in the movie.

Ah, some Malcolm Gladwell fans out there. For those of you who haven't read the book yet, it comes to the startling conclusion that success happens to people who work really hard at what they do and are in the right place at the right time. Mind-blowing!

Garbage. I'll take the downvotes for this one. That book was pure crap.

[–]Wormhog -2 points-1 points ago

In the movie he implies that he's basically done everything, and he's memorized the actions of pretty much everyone in the whole town, so I'd say thousands and thousands.

So I jump ship in Hong Kong and make my way over to Tibet, and I get on as a looper at a course over in the Himalayas. A looper, you know, a caddy, a looper, a jock. So, I tell them I'm a pro jock, and who do you think they give me? The Dalai Lama, himself. Twelfth son of the Lama. The flowing robes, the grace, bald... striking. So, I'm on the first tee with him. I give him the driver. He hauls off and whacks one - big hitter, the Lama - long, into a ten-thousand foot crevasse, right at the base of this glacier. Do you know what the Lama says? Gunga galunga... gunga, gunga-galunga. So we finish the eighteenth and he's gonna stiff me. And I say, "Hey, Lama, hey, how about a little something, you know, for the effort, you know." And he says, "Oh, uh, there won't be any money, but when you die, on your deathbed, you will receive total consciousness." So I got that goin' for me, which is nice.

Of course he is, he is a moron. He probably wishes every celebrity that he hasn't met a happy birthday on a forum they won't read. Because he is fucking dull.

Interesting relevant story: So, this one day when I was visiting colleges back in '08 I came out of a hotel with my guitar, and was waiting for my father to pick me up in the rental car. A strange looking man (gray hair, beard, not Bill Murray) asked me what sort of guitar was in the case. I proudly said it was my Martin. After a few minutes talking to the guy he said "Here, I've got something for you." The he goes into his car, grabs a wrapped package (birthday style wrapping paper) and hands it to me. Then gets in his car and drives off.

Anywho, when I open the package (while praying that its not a bomb, murder weapon, drugs, or some sort of sex toy), it turns out to be Bill Murray's autobiography, that had been signed by Arnold Palmer. Also, the cover was painted in a modern artsy style.

TLDR: Bearded man, gave me mysterious box outside a hotel. Ended up Being Murray's signed (by Arnold Palmer?!) autobiography.

I met him a few years back while shooting a pro-am golf tournament (I remember getting hammered at the Firebird? tent party in the evening) in the Scottsdale, AZ area a few years back, maybe '06. Super nice dude. I told him I was was a Cubbies fan from Chi-Town and he shook my hand at the 18th hole. I was so sad to hear he got gunned down in his Hollywood mansion.
