“You can imagine me as a kid growing up in redneck Texas with ballet shoes, tucking the violin under my arm.” — Patrick Swayze
(Maybe not the world’s greatest actor, but very talented to say the least. And, he had great looks. He was People Magazine’s Sexiest Man Alive in the early 1990s. He was in a slew of very memorable films, like “The Outsiders”, “Uncommon Valor”, “Red Dawn”, “Dirty Dancing”, “Road House”, “Ghost”, “Point Break”, and more! I knew about the ballet, but I didn’t know he also played the violin! He died, way too young, from pancreatic cancer that had spread to his liver. He had been a heavy smoker most of his life, and that likely was a factor in his illness. Don’t smoke people! Nothing good comes from it. We welcome Patrick to the Cryptoquote Club today. Too bad he’s not around to enjoy it. Be well and do good, friends.) — YUR
