I've covered so many stories in my career. Some I remember as if I reported them yesterday. Sometimes its tough to remember what I did  yesterday! 

Sometime in 1982 I was working for CNN. I was one of their correspondents attached to the Los Angeles bureau. 

As I sit here and type I can't exactly recall the specifics of the story I was sent to cover, but I remember the night drive to Beverly Hills. I and my photographer pulled up to this big house ... knocked on the door and the man who opened it called me "Mr. Eisner" and invited us inside. Mr. Eisner.  I hear that and think of my dad. But, that was the way Charleton Heston addressed me from the time he opened the door to the time he said good night.

Truly a gentleman. 
Good Night Mr. Heston!

Heston was the best! I am wondering if he has really met the real Moses though and what words would have been exchanged. By the way Hal, a very good movie with a horrible ending that he was in amongst many films was "The Omega Man." It was a rather straight forward type action/sci-fi plot, and the filmography of the movie was quite excellent for the tools of that time. But the ending killed it, however it is still worth a watch every now and then.
