    Any time I EVER watch something on Terry Fox, I'm bawling my eyes out within 10 minutes.
    Believe me, when I was growin up, I thought the worst thing you could turn out to be was normal, So I say freaks in the most complementary way. Here's a song by a fellow freak - E.V

    He made my bicycle ride for AIDS research from Raliegh NC to DC look like very small potatos. I do know some of the suffering he went through when out on those lonely country roads. Still it wasn't even close. May he continue to RIP.

    what is amazing is that terry fox has literally inspired the world ... there are like something like 60 countries that have terry fox runs ... and it's the world's largest single one day fundraising event for cancer ...

    Tonight I believe there's something to be shown featuring the Boston Redsox, this should be interesting.

    Yeah - I'm not a Yanks fan (am from NY though), but I pretty much hate Masshole sports fans. As I always say, Boston is a lovely city, just filled with awful sports fans :lol:

    And on a personal note, it makes me pretty sick to see how quickly people jump on a bandwagon, and how celebration can turn into arrogance. All those sox fans who used to hate the Yanks as the evil empire are now no different, but can't admit it to themselves (same goes with the whole steriod/cheating issue).

    Yeah, he hoped for a dollar for every Canadian... To date (according to CBC) the run has raised $553 million dollars, or 20x his original goal, without any corporate sponsorship. The run also takes place over 5 continents. Well done Terry, well done.
