Topic: The Last Lecture

Thought I'd give a heads up that tomorrow night (Wednesday April 9th) at 9 pm Central there will be a special with Diane Sawyer interviewing Randy Pausch.  I've been following his story since it first appeared on the internet last year and he is truly remarkable, wise, brave, and inspirational.  Here's a link to the ABC site talking about him and the website for his new book that comes out today.  I'm recommending it to all of my friends.

Re: The Last Lecture

My wife and I will be watching this, thank you for the reminder. An amazing man, father, husband, and an inspiration for all to see. Our own Libby sent me the lecture from Oprahs show, it really touched my soul. Life is so short, we should all look at ourselves from time to time. It made me think deeper than I ever have in my life, time flys, then your 50 years old! You scrutinize that retirement account, but will I ever get to spend it. Somehow today and just today are all that matters, if you can relate. Anyhow, I hope all of us get the chance to hear Randy, and buy his book.
