I find it a little bit ironic that this thread started on the final extension date of income tax filing and 3 days after John Denver (who IMO has gotten a bit of a bad rap) passed on. The infamous plane crash of 1997?

Mancini's first defense, against former world champion Ernesto España, went smoothly with a Mancini knockout win in the 6th round.
His next defense would change both his life and the face of boxing: On November 13, 1982, a 21-year-old Mancini met 23-year-old South Korean challenger Duk Koo Kim. Kim had to go through the process of losing several pounds immediately before the fight to make the weight. The title bout, at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas, was televised live at 1pm PST on CBS Sports. It was, according to many observers, a fight filled with action, but Mancini had an easy time hitting Kim during the 14 rounds the fight lasted. Kim suffered brain injuries that led to his death four days later. The week after his death, the cover of Sports Illustrated magazine showed Mancini and Kim battling, under the title "Tragedy in the Ring."
Mancini went to the funeral in South Korea and he fell into a deep depression afterwards. He has said that the hardest moments came when people approached him and asked if he was the boxer who "killed" Duk Koo Kim. Mancini went through a period of reflection, as he blamed himself for Kim's death. In addition, Kim's mother committed suicide four months after the fight, and the bout's referee, Richard Green, killed himself in July 1983.
As a result of this bout, the WBC took steps to shorten its title bouts to a maximum of 12 rounds. The WBA and WBO followed in 1988, and the IBF in 1989.--Wikipedia

Well I did it again. Typed in my post and then lost it.
That's it, I quit posting on the internet (after this one).
I'm working on making smoke signals.

That cloud low down looks like a sprinter starting to run.
Why, yes it does, Ollie.
Daddy, what's a non sequitur?
[Click to View YouTube Video]I still don't get it, Daddy.
[Click to View YouTube Video]Better now?
No, not a bit. But may I have a cookie?
Look, why don't you just go and Google one?
I can't, Mom's watching her Giants/Anzac Biscuits Series on the computer. She's so convinced they'll beat them in four that she doesn't want to miss a single pitch.
Then just ask yourself, What would Madison do?

You mean the Madison River, huh? Cuz no river runs straight, huh?
That's my boy!
A lot of clout showing up on this page. Many...make that all...distinguished-looking gents. Florine, Honnold, Thomaselli, Zevon, and so on and before that we had Harding.
Turn around and you bump into somebody you know or have heard of. Sort of like Facelift.
