What an uplifting story indeed Penni. Now maybe they will start that future NBA great more often :-) He deserves a life saver for that performance! Were you just a hootin and a hollerin like one of those crazed mothers? A night like that can sure mean allot to a young man going through his teens. I bet he's glad he stuck it out and kept playing.

Congratulations to Ammo! What a show! Yes, it is important that one have such moments in one's young life - to this day, some 25 years later, I still remember fondly a few instants of that ilk. Having been, in gym in high school, one of those kids who was last picked in most sports, I relished getting to the soccer part of the year. I had gone to summer camps for several years where soccer was the game of choice, and several of the counselors were from the national teams of several countries and gave instruction to the campers. So it was, each year, my athletic moment in the sun where I got to run rings around my tormentors and invoke fear instead of ridicule. Ah, that game-winning goal against the hated Herb Minkus...blew right by'im. Whoops! Scuse me.

>Or maybe this is the
way we Americans deal with things that hurt?<
Probably. Laughing about something in the boldest available terms - it's cathartic. It works for me.

Let me add my voice to the chorus: great story about Ammo. If my child ever displays such... capacity for nobility... I will be mooshyhearted for weeks.

Ammo's the Man!

Prudish Penni, is it true that Bill Clinton's memoirs will be called
A Blow by Blow Account of My Time in the White House?
