    It's not entirely his fault.
    Rather I think it's his imaginary friends that come by and visit him at his room at the Psych Ward.
    They're the ones who come up with these stories.
    he rubbed earnie shavers' bald head and mocked him calling him The Acorn in public.

    My old man said he sat in the door once and listened to some guy with "celebrity status" nearly sob and piss himself as they took fire flying out of a fob. Always thought he meant some actor or singer with little business there, but turned out it was a spit polish fast tracked Major who still had clean fingernails and all his creases and shine on the pins

    Carroll Baker in Vietnam {1965}

    "They said that the Heavyweight Champion was coming with us on the U.S.O. Tour. But he never showed up."

    "One of the other Girls said that he was afraid. And I said, you mean Sonny Liston is afraid."

    "And the other Girl said. No, not Sonny Liston. It's that other guy."

    "But nobody knew his name."

    "He wasn't all that popular or famous anyway. And, I didn't know he was a Big Chicken."

    Ali was champion by then not Sonny, so they probably knew nothing about boxing.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    I'm sure that Carroll Baker {Age; 34} knew a lot more than we thought in 1965.

    Ali was the greatest, live with it.
