RIP, Patrick Swayze

I'm not embarrassed to admit I loved him in Dirty Dancing. I thought he was very sweet and damn sexy in that movie. Liked him in Point Break and Roadhouse too.

And RIP former Carter press secretary Jody Powell. Word has it he died unexpectedly from a heart attack. Sad to lose so many famous people this year. Or is just that I'm getting so old that it feels like more people I know are dying? Reminds us to cherish the days we have and the ones you love.
