59 years and a couple of great quotes

British soccer star George Best has died.
According to this article, he lived life on his own terms, and what's more, he's left us with some good thoughts:

"I spent a lot of money on booze, birds and fast cars. The rest I just squandered."
"I used to go missing a lot . . . Miss Canada, Miss United Kingdom, Miss World."

Austin Powers had nothin' on Mr. Best.
