      Yeah, he mentioned something about the cancer on the air. I believe he had stopped smoking for years and started again after Sept. 11th. Either ways.... sad news.

        You can't have manslaughter without laughter.

        "Son," he said without preamble, "never trust a man who doesn't drink because he's probably a self-righteous sort, a man who thinks he knows right from wrong all the time. Some of them are good men, but in the name of goodness, they cause most of the suffering in the world. They're the judges, the meddlers. And, son, never trust a man who drinks but refuses to get drunk. They're usually afraid of something deep down inside, either that they're a coward or a fool or mean and violent. You can't trust a man who's afraid of himself. But sometimes, son, you can trust a man who occasionally kneels before a toilet. The chances are that he is learning something about humility and his natural human foolishness, about how to survive himself. It's damned hard for a man to take himself too seriously when he's heaving his guts into a dirty toilet bowl."

              I've watched him on the news since I can remember. It was a shock to hear he had cancer a few months back and they just announced a few hours ago he died. Last I heard he was getting treatment but they didn't say how bad it was.

                      Hindsight is always 20/20 but there was an air of uncertainty in his voice when he made the announcement. It was as if he knew that he only had a short time left. I believe that was the reason why he slipped under the radar and didn't grant very many interviews, etc. He wanted to live out the rest of his life in peace and with his family.
