“It’s just a job.  Grass grows, birds fly, waves pound the sand.  I beat people up.”   — Muhammad Ali

(The Greatest . . . of All Time!!!  I think that I shall never see, a heavyweight as awesome as Muhammad Ali.  With punches that flurried, and dazzling footwork.  His head feints and windmills turned tough guy to jerk.  His taunts were delivered, half grimace – half smile.  He knew he could goad you and stir up the bile.  He’d attack then retreat, because all the while.  Though your power be mighty, there was no denial.  He knew The Sweet Science was more about style!)   — YUR
