Title: One man's triumph over adversity
Post by: 2Slow on March 12, 2004, 10:12:28 AM

Eighty-two-year-old Paul Smith is a heart-warming and inspiring example of one man's triumph over adversity. Unable to walk, read or write, and  confined to a wheelchair, he has drawn hundreds of superb pictures by  using an old-fashioned typewriter. And he's been doing that for 60 years."

Just had to share this.  When you think you have it bad, remember this man and what he overcame.
