After the loss of roger ebert today and [View all]

a personal loss I am in the middle of because a family member is sick, I am doubly reminded of how delicate health can be, especially as you age. We need our heroes to be healthy. List the name of one of your ageing hero right here and wish them good health.

I hope that Michael Moore keeps on walking every day.
