He was a true gentleman before anything else and easily the most likeable football personality out there.

Not sure they make managers like that anymore. Far removed from the mostly snarling, moaning breed we have at the moment.

Ferris Bueller is an absolute classic, and will always be special I think for those of us of a certain age.
Wierd Science is another one of his that was quite the thing at the time. :)
Sad news.

Am so upset and shocked. As we established elsewhere, I am weird, but maybe thats coz weird things happen to me. I dreamt about Darren Sutherland for the first time in my life on Sunday night Monday morning and now he is dead. Fingers crossed he is the only one from that dream to die as Keith Fahy, Cillian Murphy, Charlene McKenna and one of our football coaches who I consider a good friend were also in the dream.

Am so upset bout Patrick Swayze too as like most girls, Dirty Dancing is one of my favourite movies of all time and the immortal lines "nobody puts baby in a corner" stands out as one of my favourite moments in time.

Now Keith Floyd? Was gonna watch a programme last night called when Keith met Keith about Keith Allen tracking down Keith Floyd but was too tired and as there were already 2 things recording on Sky, I decided against it. Dammit.

RIP to 3 men I really admired. XXX

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/8256033.stm

When the tabs announced 18 months ago that Swayze had 6 weeks to live I'm afraid my reaction was as unkind and impatient as Homers when shown the US Navy deep fat cooker that could flash-fry a cow in 30 seconds.

But it's sad to to see someone die at 57 and all the more bewildering when they appear to be the sort of person who looked after themselves.

I remember seeing her 107th birthday celebrations. She was a big fan of WWE, and The Rock in particular, so he recorded a birthday message for her.

:eek: I did not know that. Even so -it appears the primary cancer was in his pancreas ...I'd have thought any pancreas related disease more likely to happen with someone who was for example morbidly obese.
