You look unintelligent in most things you say bott.

I watched Spinks and Cashes Clay fight did you?

Don't tell me what I know about boxing. How much boxing have you done?

Pick another thread if you want to have a bantering session with me bott, this one is for Notable deaths!

Jeez, Rusters

Yet 4 posts up I look 'intelligent'

You still choose to call Ali by his 'slave name' of Cassius Clay (or at least your best attempt at spelling it)

Go back to the 1850s slave plantations in the South USA

Yes, this is notable deaths. Before getting involved in a mini flame war with you, I would like to say that I was correcting your multiple errors on the recent, too early, death of the boxer Leon Spinks.

I have posted nothing incorrect about Spinks' career, you have.

But I shall now leave. The last word, as tediously as ever, is yours.

Cassius Clay was his name before he went Muslim changed it to Ali!

Did you know that?......You want to stay here and mess up the Notable death thread?

No, bott you seen a chance to jump on an error from the site which I didn't notice and jumped all over it nothing to do with Spinks Death. Your flame war against me is all it was! Do you think no one can see it? You really think that name calling makes you look smart?

Another unbearable loss.

He was always paired in the ven diagram of my mind with Keith Jarrett who is slightly younger and whose playing career has now been ended by illness. There are several Corea albums I treasure, but there would be a few Jarrett albums I would grab first en route to the proverbial last balloon. But once I had those in hand, I'd reach for 1968's Now He Sings, Now He Sobs.

Your own.
Only if you are a person of note. As per the thread's original post, it's about notable people who have died recently; not notable (e.g., bizarre) deaths.

I don't think that is a fair comparison, he did make an apology for some things he said was very controversial and not always Politically correct which is one of the reasons I think he had millions of followers.
