On this day in 1997, CBS presented a telemovie version of Neil Simon's 1972 Broadway play, The Sunshine Boys, the story of aging vaudevillians whose relationship deteriorates to the point that they find it difficult to work together.

Simon wrote the TV adaptation, which starred Woody Allen as Al Lewis and Peter Falk as Willie Clark and reimagined the two as pioneers of early television. The telefilm's supporting cast included Michael McKean, Liev Schreiber, Edie Falco, Sarah Jessica Parker and Whoopi Goldberg.

The Broadway roles were originated by Sam Levene as Lewis and Jack Albertson as Clark; a 1997 revival starred Tony Randall and Jack Klugman. A 1975 film version was also made, starring George Burns and Walter Matthau.

Finding the perfect workout gear can be difficult. There is so much on the market nowadays, and yet, there seems to be no standard for quality. All too often, you can order a product only to have it break just a few days after opening the packaging! But we want to make our products better! That is why we took it upon ourselves to try to change the legging workout industry, by starting up our own workout clothing store --- www.zozzoz.com.

brian shaffer

was last seen between 1:30 am and 2:00 am on April 1, 2006, at a bar called the Ugly Tuna Saloona with best friend, Clint Florence, as well as another friend, after finishing up his midterms for the semester. Brian was supposed to be leaving for vacation with his girlfriend in Miami for spring break on April 3, however, Brian never made it to the airport. After the investigation into his disappearance had begun, footage from the Ugly Tuna Saloona was recovered by police, showing Brian on an escalator going to the bar's main entrance at 1:15 am, and again at 1:55 am outside of the bar before moving back towards the entrance to the bar, off-camera. Brian was never seen on camera leaving the bar after that.
