The struggle goes on. The victory is in the struggle, for me. And I accepted that a long time ago.
Al Lewis Quotes
The United States, per capita, at a certain period in its history, had the most junkies of any country ever in the world - right after the Civil War. The most brutal war, the greatest amount of casualties that America's ever had.

Al Lewis was an American character actor best known for his role as "Grandpa Munster" on the television series The Munsters and its subsequent film versions. Later in life, he was also a restaurant owner, political candidate, and radio broadcaster. Lewis is thought to have been born April 30, 1923. Few other facts about Lewis are known with any certainty; most of the information comes from interviews he gave, but there are inconsistencies in his statements. Sometimes he gave his birth year as 1910, other times 1923. Ted Lewis, his son, said his father was born in 1923. Dan Barry of the New York Times wrote in reference to Lewis: "Actors who lie about their age usually subtract, not add, years, and few would have the nerve to fudge those years by more than a decade." Lewis was born under the name Albert Meister or possibly Alexander Meister to a Jewish family in Brooklyn, New York.
