My sporting HERO was Drazen Petrovic, the NBA basketball player, who was killed in a CAR accident in 1993. He was a good friend, an unbelievable player, and I DEDICATED my Wimbledon WIN to him.
If your POLITICAL views DEFINE who you are as a HUMAN, and you can't stand to have FRIENDS that have different views than you, than you need to reevaluate, my FRIEND.
I MOVED to the city in August of 1980, and SOMEONE I thought was a friend had an apartment in this wedding cake of a BUILDING, so I SLEPT on her couch for a few days.
I wouldn't say I'm a friend of DAVID Byrne, but I GUESS I'm an acquaintance. I'm obviously an ADMIRER, and we've met, but we don't call and chat about 'Breaking Bad' or anything.
I've known my best friend SINCE I was a BABY, and I don't know what I would do WITHOUT her. She is ALWAYS straight with me and can MAKE me laugh hysterically. Everyone should have someone like that in their life.
