But, after opening his skull, they didn't find anything. However, upon further inspection, they did come across a small locked box with a gold icon, some precious jewels, and some bearer bonds inside.:ph34r:

Seriously, though, doctors are calling his surgery a success; and expect a successful recovery.:thumpsup:

I really admire Billy Graham and still like to watch/listen to his old crusades when they run them on TV. In my mind, he is the epitome of a sincere Christian and a Godly man. His preaching was always moving, and he touched thousands of people's lives over the years. Throughout his life, there has never been a hint of impropriety about him or his organization. Pretty awesome!

Right on GeauxTo! What an incredible man of God. Shame, many of the fallen modern day "evangelist" didn't model their ministries like Billy Graham. I can remember my dad and mom having our family sit in front of the TV watching his crusades back in the late 60's and early 70's. Class #1 guy! Praying he has a speedy recovery!

No offense, but "God for Gold" will always be an oxymoron to me. Anybody who sells themselves on T.V. in the name of religion to make themselves rich isn't my idea of a man of God. I'm happy for anyone who got something out of the sermons, but the whole idea of evangelists kind of makes a mockery of the whole idea of piety, imho. I do respect his refusal to join Falwell's "Moral Majority", though. At least he recognized there was very little that was moral about the majority of those people, and that the leaders were a bunch of hypocrites. I also thought it was big of him to publicly apologize for some anti-semetic remarks he'd made. Few folks these days own up to their mistakes.
