A True Hero


If you had a chance to watch the Diane Sawyer Special on Randy Pausch Wednesday, here's a slice of what they showed.


ESPN has an excerpt from it here.


I've written about Dr. Pausch before....he's a former college professor who was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer a few years ago. Now, he's passing on his life's lessons to the world (most importantly, his three children who are 6-years old and younger) and he definitely is an inspiration. He gives updates on his condition on this site.

On Thursday, I tried to buy his book at the Barnes and Noble and it was sold out. Instead of waiting 2 weeks to have it ordered, I bought it online. The book is currently atop the Amazon best seller list.


I volunteer for a Pancreatic Cancer Action Network and we're having a golf fundraiser in Annandale on June 30th. There's also a reception at 6:30 p.m. after the golf outing. More info to come.
