Patrick Swayze still dancing in my heart

Sad, sad news in the entertainment world. Patrick Swayze has died of pancreatic cancer. He was 57.

My first introduction to Swayze's work was, of course, "Dirty Dancing." He was just so rugged and cool in that movie. And you can't say that all too often about men who wear tight T-shirts and love to dance.

He kept that cool vibe going in "Roadhouse," "Point Break" and "Next of Kin." All great movies. But, Swayze will always stay in my heart for two memorable phrases: "Nobody puts Baby in a corner" and "He's got the sexiest moves I've ever seen."

Check out Swayze's "time of his life" in this SNL clip:



And a little something extra for you fans of North & South. (Warning: Swayze gets steamy in this scene. Not for the kiddos.)
