    Whoa! That caught me off guard.

    I was expecting Dick Van Dyke (99), Clint Eastwood (94) or even Mel Brooks (98, 99 in June), but not Big George.

    RIP.

    RIP big man.

    I got a chance as a kid to meet Ali, Frazier, and Forman all at the same time at a banquet…one of the greatest memories of my childhood.

    It was either soap operas, or game shows.

    I almost got addicted to soap operas after I was home sick two days in a row.

    RIP Wink.
