    Probably sitting alone in my dimly lit bedroom with a Hustler magazine, a glass of cherry coke and a mind full of unspeakable thoughts! Of course things changed now that I am older....now I drink Vanilla Coke! imageimage

    I think I was sitting at the dinner table and thinking about how pissed my friend was going to be for drafting him in our fantasy basketball league.

    What day of the week was that? That way, I could tell you if I was at work or sleeping in.

    I was in the Air Force working on a plane when a buddy came by and told me. I pretty much figured Magic had a death sentence and he'd be gone in a year or two. I wasn't a Lakers fan, but Magic was a likeable fellow and I was pretty upset about it.

    Walking into a classroom (I could still point out the exact room) at law school. I was a big Laker's fan back then.

    Working in a restaurant bussing tables, all the waitresses were looking up at the TV watching it and I remember how shocked we all were and thinking it was a death sentence for him due to the little info we knew about the disease.

    Remember these Chuck Norris Facts

    1. When Chuck Norris does a pushup, he isn't lifting himself up, he's pushing the Earth down
    2. According to Einstein's theory of relativity, Chuck Norris can actually roundhouse kick you yesterday
    3. There are no such things as lesbians, just women who have not yet met Chuck Norris

    He appears to be enjoying life to the fullest... and when the Dodgers win a world series he'll be enjoying it even more!
