1. "Laurels wear out quickly; resting upon them just crushes them to the ground." So true. It sounds like a great tag line. 2. Working outside jobs to keep the bills paid, while doing the great things in one's life, puts Mr. Starks in company with Patch Adams. |

I had the privilege of meeting Ken once while visiting in Austin. It was an honor to be able to buy dinner for someone who has given so much to others. I just wish there was more I could do. |

I read this interview one day after my family's second cancer death in the last 5 months. Mortality sucks, but it gets all of us sooner or later. We all die. Not all of us manage to live. Ken's got a lot of us beat on that score. That said, I'm not ready to count Ken out just yet. he's a tough old buzzard who's beaten back the big 'C' before. Hope he does it again. Regardless, those are some pretty fine footprints he's left in the sand. |

dinotrac - You meant "That said, I'm NOT ready to count Ken out just yet." Right? |

Nor am I. |
