Not knowing much about much of anything of real importance. The nation becoming ripped apart by the war, black and white, Emmett Till, Malcolm X, King, JFK, Bobby, LBJ, Nixon. What more? How many more? I feel lucky. Lucky that I got out alive. Lucky that I lived with Muhammad Ali in my lifetime. Loud, proud, and not afraid. I AM THE GREATEST! Gives me courage. Me too. I AM THE GREATEST! Thanks champ.
