Thank you so much for exposing us to think they are nothing more than "Hockey, the looney, and a dangerous league of football."

I forgot all about this story until you posted it. Thank you so much!!! You're still doing short lengthed stories. If you are still in that frame of mind, perhaps "A Small, Good Thing" By Raymond Carver soon? Amazing reading! I forgot all about this story until you posted it. Thank you so much!!!
