I decided to swing by Caroline&#8217;s Comedy Club on Broadway and 50th on my way back to the bus. There was a small tribute to Robin Williams taped up on the outside wall. Pictures of him as Mork. A picture of Johnny Carson wiping tears of laughter from his eyes. A quote from Robin Williams: <\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;You&#8217;re only given a little spark of madness. You mustn&#8217;t lose it.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The folks at the Comedy Club must have just put it up when they got to work that morning. Someone had placed some sunflowers beneath the taped-up photos. I am sure there will be more flowers placed throughout the day. Something about there being only a couple of sunflowers there made the moment even more emotional. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sheilaomalley.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/14711702410_8c88e6af76_z.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sheilaomalley.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/14711702410_8c88e6af76_z.jpg\" alt=\"14711702410_8c88e6af76_z\" width=\"640\" height=\"640\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-88005\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sheilaomalley.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/14711702410_8c88e6af76_z.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.sheilaomalley.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/14711702410_8c88e6af76_z-100x100.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.sheilaomalley.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/14711702410_8c88e6af76_z-200x200.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.sheilaomalley.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/14711702410_8c88e6af76_z-400x400.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I was on my way home this morning from a screening (that had been canceled last-minute due to a problem with the print or something).
