Fireball's Hollywood Pop turns 83...

Hollywood's Octogenerian Writer, Anthony Lawrence is still bookin...'

Man, what an inspiration... When you have a Pop that turns 83 and he's busier than ever, you really get excited about your life. He's up at 5am (sometimes earlier), gets out and about with his friends doing projects, then sits down and writes like a Tazmanian Devil.... then, has his morning coffee. All that before 8am. (OK, maybe he works a bit slower than my slight exaggeration here, but not by much.) Pop's been a Hollywood Writer/Producer since the early 60's. From Outer Limits to Bonanza to Hawaii 5-0. Thousands of published pieces. And just this year he wrote a musical! Must be all that sea air...

I love my Dad because he always has his "pedal to the plastic." And at 83, he's still makin' his life a weekend. Join me in celebrating his birthday. Give him a Happy Birthday post on his Facebook page.
