Screen legend and former chain-smoker Paul Newman has been diagnosed with terminal lung cancer and is under the care of a leading oncologist at Sloan-Kettering Memorial, reports Elizabeth Snead at The L.A. Times' The Envelope. There's been dire speculation about Newman's health since he abruptly pulled out a planned movie with Robert Redford that was going to be shot in North Carolina last year and instead announced his retirement from the screen.

I met him at Lime Rock back when he was racing.  As PanthersMom said, he was just one of the guys at the track.  And a really nce guy at that.

He and his work are well loved; he matters to a lot of people. That's why it's a story.

Well apparently he retired and wants to be left alone.  So I don't see tabloid journalists showing the man much respect by speculating over his reason to retire.  Being 83 years old is a good enough reason for me for a man to retire. 

I like his movies, and his pasta sauces aren't bad.  But I don't obsess about people I don't know.
