Roberto Clemente', The Great One!
Tomorrow/New Year's Day's 40th anniversary of his relief mission to Nicaragua and death.

Decent article in the trib also.

^ thumbs up!
Anne Madarasz, director of the Western Pennsylvania Sports Museum, recalls speaking to a third-grade class and mentioning the names of great Pirates players. Honus Wagner drew blank looks. Even Willie Stargell, a more recent legend, produced only slight recognition.

“But when I mentioned Roberto Clemente, four or five hands shot up,” she said.
About 30 public and private schools are named for Clemente, though, curiously, none in Western Pennsylvania. The Roberto Clemente Foundation is based here. The Roberto Clemente Bridge links Downtown with the North Shore‘s PNC Park and Roberto Clemente Memorial Park. Even in Mannheim, Germany, kids play on a Roberto Clemente Field.
More than a dozen books and a PBS documentary focus on Clemente, and he inspired movies and plays (including a musical called “DC-7, The Roberto Clemente Story”). Another film is in the works

I lived across the street from a Roberto Clemente school in Chicago.
(It was near the Puerto Rican neighborhood, which has giant PR flags at either end.)

Snowboarding is way more fun when there's real powder and not fake icy crap.

A couple shots of Pepto and chugging water as a preemtive strike. Hopefully this works

The last three or four days, I've been plagued by a nagging headache, but more oddly I feel like I am having frigging hot flashes. I'll start sweating profusely just sitting down, and then it swings back the other way. My temperature is completely normal too, right around 98-99. According to the internet, I may have Type 2 diabetes

I actually thought it was kind of cute...think if our parents today were that doting and attentive to their children. I think there's a real life lesson to be learned from that picture

Women eating their husbands would solve a ton of problems, too.
