    Famous people are really accident victims.

    I believe Marilyn to be absolutely right !
    As the great Jimmy Durante says in his fabulous song …………
    Fame - if you win it, comes and goes - in a minute
    Where's the real stuff in life you cling to
    Love - is the answer

    The difference between winning and succeeding | John Wooden

    With profound simplicity, Coach John Wooden redefines success and urges us all to pursue the best in ourselves. In this inspiring talk he shares the advice he gave his players at UCLA, quotes poetry and remembers his father's wisdom.

    I remember John Wooden. I was living in Raleigh when NC State beat UCLA and ended up national champions.

    "On March 23, 1974, North Carolina State beat UCLA 80-77 in double overtime in the Final Four at the Greensboro (NC) Coliseum, in what is widely regarded as one of the greatest of all NCAA tournament games. The loss also marked the end of the Bruins' seven-year national championship run." :D

    The above reminds me of so many in the 60s/70s that were given a weekly wage instead of the royalties they deserved
    The managers were raking in 'their' money :rolleyes:
