What is Kaufman?

Arguably the greatest and most original screenwriter currently working. He's the master behind;

- Being John Malkovich
- Adaptation
- Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
- Confessions of a Dangerous Mind
- Human Nature

He has had two past Oscar nominations for Best Screenplay and this year has been nominated for this third for "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind," his best to date.

If Kaufman doesn't take him his Oscar, then this will be my last time watching the Academy Awards.

What does "Kaufman" mean?

Also known as Tony Clifton, Andy Kaufman is the most underrated guy on this Earth. He played in the show Taxi and was on Saturday Night Live. People wonder if he is still alive, in Tony Clifton (figuratively, not literally), but that remains to be seen.

"Tank you veddy much"

"I have lung cancer." :-D

Kaufman - what does it mean?

Andy Kaufman is a famous performer and illusionist who pretended to have lung cancer and die in 1984. He told at least 5 people of his plan to fake his death only 2 short years before he died at age 35 of lung cancer despite not smoking, drinking or using drugs.

No one believed he was really sick and many believe he's alive today. He was obsessed with the "Elvis Lives" concept and decided to try it himself after talking with hoaxer Alan Abel, who successfully faked his death and had his obituary published in the NY Times. He can be found on Twitter, Myspace and Facebook under various names and was the subject of the 1999 film, "Man on the Moon" starring Jim Carrey and the R.E.M. song of the same name.

That Andy Kaufman is one strange duck.

Kaufman - definition

A place where dreams and ambition go to die. Kids can't wait to "get out of this town and never come back", but end up getting knocked up by their high school sweetheart, continue to live here for the rest of their lives, and then their kids have the same high school teachers they had had.

Kaufman, Texas resident: "Let's get high and go to Denny's."
