Dan Fogelberg R.I.P.

Dan Fogelberg: Leader of the Band
Dan Fogelberg, singer and songwriter died yesterday of Prostate Cancer at 56. R.I.P.
From his website – the Sermon:
Now for the sermon.
To each and every man….
I cannot encourage you strongly enough to get a DRE (Digital Rectal Exam) and a PSA (Prostate Specific Antigen) test EVERY YEAR.
The medical community suggests this for men over 50, but men with a family history of prostate cancer should start getting tested at age 40.
The PSA test is a simple blood test…it only takes a minute or two. The DRE, okay, every man squirms at the thought of this exam, but hey, it too takes only a minute or two, and IT COULD SAVE YOUR LIFE.
Prostate cancer can be very slow growing or very aggressive, but detected early while it is still confined to the prostate gland, it can usually be treated and cured successfully.
Once it spreads beyond the prostate it is called Advanced Prostate Cancer (PCa). At this point it becomes imminently more life threatening and harder to treat. Do yourself and your loved ones a huge favor and GET CHECKED REGULARLY. I promise you, you DON’T want to go through what I’m going through if you can avoid it.
Education and awareness are key, I urge you to follow the link below to the Prostate Cancer Foundation web site and read up on how best to protect yourself and reduce your likelihood of contracting this terrible disease.
And, now another:

Global War on Terror Watch: Cat Stevens (Yusuf Islam) Allowed to Enter United States to Promote CD
New York Post: Mission Of Peace
YUSUF Islam, formerly Cat Stevens, is being allowed back into the United States to promote his first new album in 30 years, “An Other Cup.” The 1970s singer happens to share his Muslim name with someone on the government’s “No-Fly” list and was refused entry to the U.S. in 2004. His name has since been cleared, but Islam is shying away from political controversy. Fox 411’s Roger Friedman got a sneak-listen at the CD (which includes a cover of the Animals’ “Don’t Let Me Be Misunderstood”) and said, “There’s nothing on ‘Cup’ that could offend anyone and plenty of love and peace for everyone.”
Nothing to offend but the profits going to terrorist front organizations.
Why would the State Department allow him to enter the United States – especially with his ties to radical Islamic clerics?
DO NOT BUY YUSUF ISLAM’S NEW CD!
