LOL!!

Your comments bring up some fond memories on this day when we are inclined to look back through the past a bit.

I remember the guy who marched beside me in the Olympic parade many years ago (1976)_.... he was a wrestler....... shorter than me (hard to believe) and about twice as wide across the shoulders. I remember saying to him, "So you are on the wrestling team". And his reply was , Yes, how did you know?". (VBG)

Incidentally, later in that same memorable march, I looked over at him as we approached that mighty stadium and he had the biggest grin, but also tears streaming down his face. I yelled at him above the crowd noise, "Brian, why the heck are you crying.... this should be one of the happiest days of your life?". His reply is still etched in my mind..... "I'm not crying.... and why are you?".

I have a soft spot in my heart for the wrestlers ever since. (g)

Best, Earlie
