Minor news items that don't deserve a thread

True. Perhaps people just grieve better by going on auto pilot.

I know when my Dad was diagnosed with Alzheimer's, he simply continued on with work. Went in the very next day. Unfortunately, he couldn't remember where his parking space was, and had to come back home.

All that trolling build up to an awful joke, ffs

Article on Mike Adamle and his current health issues. I never realised he had such an interesting career.

Great article that. I know hindsight is 20/20 but after reading that and remember how Mike was in the WWE everything suggests he was showing early signs of dementia.

Yeah. It certainly puts a different light on that whole episode. I wasn't really watching WWE at the time. Yet remember the online vitriol that was directed at his work of that period. He was heavily despised.

Not news but there was an AMA from the guy that designed NBA Jam and WWF WrestleMania Arcade. I can really picture this anecdote:

 

Tons of fun stories at Midway - but Undertaker looking at us and saying he wouldn't work until we went and bought some Whiskey resonates for me.

 

He demanded Jack Daniels. But at least he eventually worked hard! Doink the Clown... Mr Perfect... Not so much.

 

There was a late night bar in Rosemont where they'd all go after shows in Chicago, and we'd get sucked into the mix now and again. Always a mess. Even Mr Fuji.
