ironically, the December issue of Maxim has an interview with evel… entitled **_Evel never dies_** or such. I think its on newstands now, we got it a week ago or so. Pretty good read for what it is and all. He talks about some of the same old stuff: his battles with “the life”, his relationship with robbie, his balls the size of watermelons… But apparently he only had ~1yr to live according to the docs. Evel also says this isprolly his last interview (feel bad for the writer now?) and… after an atheistic life, Evel found God a few months ago. RIP ---
