Muhammad Ali's Family Gathers at Bedside

[Bpeep]

Good grief they're treating this guy like he was ghandi. As much as he had Parkinsons, he still lived a long life.
Kimbo slice packed it in at a young age and he won't get two days coverage on cnn.

[occasional thoughts]

A friend, born/originally from Alberta (I've forgiven him) told an interesting story yesterday. Ali was visiting Alberta in 1968 and speaking at the U of Calgary and was asked a direct question: why didn't he go to Vietnam and fight? The answer was because he didn't like guns, but if everyone gave up their guns and were issued boxing gloves instead, he'd take on 1,000 of the enemy and whup them all.
