I\u0092ve heard it time and again. I\u0092ve also heard people say they prefer Dean over Frank. What was the man\u0092s secret? Just this, I suspect &#8212; this guy didn\u0092t do needy. Never. Not with anybody. And most of us think that\u0092s cool. Because we don\u0092t want to be needy either. A pox on Jerry and his unleashed emotion on those telethons! Damn that childish Frank and his spaghetti assault on this cool, unflappable man. Yes, I suspect we\u0092d all like to be a little more like Dean. Not all the way, mind you, because by all accounts, his loner habits did not necessarily make for a happy life, particularly toward the end, but who wouldn\u0092t want that calm exterior? They say that even with all that spaghetti matting in his hair, Dean just got up calmly, walked into the bathroom, and waited for a penitent Frank to leave his hotel suite. The only thing that seems to have really impacted on Dean was his son\u0092s tragic death during a jet-training flight in 1987. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>And check out those photos.
