David wrote to me off list and asked if I would join him and vince for
Mexican food and brewskies in charlotte. Plans made long ago. I am also
meeting with Dr. john and Johnnie K all of whom i have drawn blood with. I
guess it must be a guy thing- we taste each others blood and then go drink
beer and yuck it up together. No grudges are held. In Canada, we call it a
hockey team. The best part of the deal is that Vince is the only guy with a
real job, so I guess he's buying. Oh yeah and theres those book royalities-
that's a joke if nerves are still a little testy.
I respect and admire all of these guys. Every one of these guys have given
greatly to the Clayart hockey team. In hockey when you lay down in front of
a slap shot, you are said to be "taking one for the team. I'd take one for
any member of this team. They would do the same for me.
For the record if you're 5'7" tall with a mouth just as wide, you know the
value of friends. I consider Vince a friend. If you are with friends you
feel safe to be yourself.
Make new friends,
But keep the old,
One is silver,
The other is gold.
Looking forward to Happy Hour with the boys.
Cheers,
tony
P.S Welcome back Craig M. You don't need to sit in the penalty box. Get
back out on the ice where you belong. You've got friends here and we miss
you on the team.
