Point taken, but the way it looks, I don't think they ever really got along. For that matter, they never respected each other either, suing each other when it suited them (Jim sues Meat in 1981 for 15m, Jim sues Meat in '95 to stop it "All Coming Back" to him, Meat sues Jim and Jim countersues in '06, etc.). If they can't get it together on a business footing, who's to say they ever had it on a personal footing as well?
