Appreciation: Evel Knievel, 1938-2007 - TIME

Evel Knievel died Friday after 69 years, which is more than twice as long as it by all rights should have taken him. Knievel, who had been in poor health for years from conditions including diabetes and hepatitis C, was best known for his death-defying jumps on motorcycles (and other vehicles) in the 1960s and '70s. But really the stuntman, born Robert Craig Knievel Jr., was best known, and loved, for his crashes. After a number of successful jumps — over cars, trucks, live animals — Knievel shot to national fame after ABC Wide World of Sports aired footage of him spectacularly crashing, and crushing his pelvis, while trying to clear the fountains at Caesar's Palace in Las Vegas.

This movie is gonna rock 'cause I says so!

You've got to see this video

Hi,

You've got to see this video. It's a great reminder of just how hard the Bush Administration is trying to spin this war.

The escalation has been a failure.

This was one of the bloodiest summers for US troops in Iraq, Iraqi casualties are running at twice the pace of last year and 15 of 18 of President Bush's own benchmarks remain unmet. But the White House is telling us that black is white, up is down, and things in Iraq are going just great.

We need to pass this video around widely to remind America that the White House has a bit of a "credibility gap" when it comes to progress in Iraq. Check it out, then forward it on:

Thanks!
