Pulitzer-winning author Norman Mailer dies at 84


This is what caught my eye from the obit:

He had nine children, made a quixotic bid to become mayor of New York, produced five forgettable films, dabbled in journalism, flew gliders, challenged professional boxers, was banned from a Manhattan YWHA for reciting obscene poetry, feuded publicly with writer Gore Vidal and crusaded against women's lib.


That my friends is an obit you don't see every day.
