| Man, that sucks bigtime. I remember him from Roadhouse, the suckiest movie that I can't help but watch every time it's on. Some people just keep gettin' kicked.

| I've often thought, do the dead look back on us and say " The poor bastards can't catch a break, they just keep toiling away. "

| Keep smiling Jim, things will get better, and if they don't we wouldn't want the people who don't like us to see us suffering.

| Poor Mr. Healey. While I concur that he is a great musician and he has definitely triumphed over challenge, I just never really got into his music. That's not to say I don't have a few of his albums . . . I think he does an excellent cover of "Full Circle."

| First concert I ever saw. Most people know him for his blues and rock, but Healey's real passion was jazz. The man had an encyclopedic knowledge, and a collection of 78s that deserves to be uploaded to the web for all eternity.

| ah yes, roadhouse. a piece of cinematographic genius if ever there was one; oh wait, it's basically garbage. Except Jeff Healey played music in it. He's dead and all these other morons are alive; it ain't right. Or as I call them; living organ donors.
