Sly Sends His Best!
How cool is that?!? I came home this week to find this personalized, autographed picture from Sly! Simon, who runs both Sly and Frank‘s Official Sites and I exchange e-mails from time to time. Simon thanked me for something that I had done for him and asked if there was ever anything that he could do for me… I told him [half jokingly] that a personalized autographed picture from Sly would be cool…
Wow!
SZoners, please don’t bombard Simon for autographs. He called in a marker for this one!

Sly vs Ali
The March 21, 2003 issue of Entertainment Weekly contains an article entitled “Oscars 20 Most Memorable Moments.” The picture to the left and following text appear in it.
1977 A long-shot Best Actor nominee for the boxing drama Rocky, Sylvester Stallone probably wasn’t expecting any golden trophies. He definitely wasn’t expecting to be joined on stage by heavyweight champ Muhammad Ali. “I’m the real Apollo Creed!” Ali exclaims, pseudo-sparring with the Italian Stallion. “Show me what you can really do!”
