You should have seen my Mom....Momma wolf with her cubs. One time when I was about 7 years old I was fishing from the Redondo Beach pier and there were several teenage punks that were cursing and generally acting in a threatening manner to everyone around them. My Mom said "hey, there are kids here!", they gave her some attitude and she started walking over like she was going to toss them over the railing....they shut up. It was kinda cool<g> Mom taught me how to ski, perhaps not the greatest endorsement after the last piffer trip to Reno where I screwed up my knee taking that jump...but really, that was lack of common sense, not skiing ability. My Mom was a HOT skier!!!

<<I was one person shorter in my corner>> Man, I know that feeling. Damn few people can overlook your mistakes in life and still love you. You and I are about the same age.....and from here on out the list keeps getting shorter.

Guys guys guys..... I am impressed by your expressions of sentiment. I told you I was in a reflective mood...well the anniversary of my joining SI is quickly followed by the Anniversary of my fathers death.....I was sharing some of that story last night with my coffee friend...She still has her Dad. I am envious sometimes, when I see him being over protective of his 40 year old daughter..... Luckily I still have one hell of a cheering section with my mom. Kirk, I need some lyrics..."Two tickets to Paradise" was playing one night when my dad was sick.....Mom and I sat on to the living room floor....crying and hugging each other. I believe I was a senior in High School. Jane
