How I have existed fills me with horror. For I have failed in everything - spelling, arithmetic, riding, tennis, golf; dancing, singing, acting; wife, mistress, whore, friend. Even cooking. And I do not excuse myself with the usual escape of 'not trying'. I tried with all my heart.

In my dreams, I am not crippled. In my dreams, I dance.

Aw, man. 'Curly' Neal was a fave on the 70s Globtrotters.  He was, as I recall a magnificent dribbler.

Edit: Mark Blum was good as the sort-of antagonist in Crocodile Dundee.

RIP to both men.

RIP.  HAUSU (House) was a fun horror film.  I hear some of his other films were good but I don't know if I've seen them.

The Heir to the (evil) Empire, Hank Steinbrenner passed away. He was only 63 but I had read he has been having health problems for a long time now.

Former NFL QB Tavaris Jackson died in a car accident. He was only 36. That is a damn shame.

Coincidentally, I've been watching some old NFL games, and saw him in Favre vs. The Packers I back in 2009 just yesterday.

Rick May, most famous for Soldier in TF2 and Peppy Hare in Star Fox (...and also I remember his line as Genghis Khan in Age of Empires II), passed of coronavirus yesterday.
