Anyone taking a short trip around my world knows that I write a little and talk a lot. I am the guy with the small keyboard that produces much less than my big mouth. I have written all that to “simply” say, “When talk is free it’s really cheap!” Now, you have to admit that…

… we have enough “celebrities” Oh for the days when you could tell the players without a program, scorecard, or playbook. Many years ago, we knew people were exactly who they were just because we somehow knew! When I saw Chuck, I knew he was the same as the kid I physically defended in second…
