He is ALIVE and well but he also told us he was very tired. He is the best! He reflected upon the past and had some awesome stories to tell about working with Jack and Stan....Oh sooo funny. He is very approachable, loves to talk and has a larger than life sense of humor! Hugs, Kisses and BIG LOVE to you Joe!

He has street smarts, and a really good attitude. Worth picking up a copy of issue 76 or the pdf version from TwoMorrows. http://twomorrows.com I read a fascinating and detailed interview with Simon in a very recent issue of Alter Ego.
