Evel Knievel's Last Jump

[Minnie]

Gosh DKA, this is a side of you I did not know. If I had known when I wrote my "SoWal Twas the Night Before Christmas", I would have had you fly over the house instead of Santa.

RIP Evel, you were the man.

yes, I was thinking the same thing. I'm sure he always thought he'd go out in a blaze of glory.


The History Channel had a special on him this afternoon. Man O man, was he ever overconfident!
