Randy Pausch's 'The Last Lecture'

Just for a change, let's look at something that is inspirational, put aside all these political crap that I have been posting here in this blog...

There is nothing like hearing stories and advices from a dying man. Randy Pausch , this guy here is real life 'Morrie' from Tuesdays with Morrie. I saw his lecture, The Last Lecture, from youtube today... I think you should too, here it is LINK to THE LAST LECTURE

This guy is 48 years old and his almost complete biodata is available in wikipedia.com. There is a health update page that gives information on his current health condition, which is available at this link

Be that as it may, for a dying man, he has an undying wit and sense of humor which makes the rest of us feel more and more fond of this man. He is one of a kind and I wholeheartedly hope that he can live a lot longer than the doctors' prediction.

To Randy's kids Dylan, Logan, and Chloe; You are very much blessed for having a father like Randy. Start dreaming kids, dream of great things, of amazing and powerful things and become like your father in nailing them one by one. May you find yourselves facing brickwalls that make you wiser and more diligent in your efforts. Watch for the head fakes like your father did for every cloud has a silver lining.
