Mornin' Cuzzies, Soooo, there we were....the two sports stars sitting side by side on the front row in the funeral....Da Kid and me.....waiting for the rest to fill up the pews. And, Da Kid leans over and whispers, "Guess who I drew in today? Ray Childress...." He's an ex-All-American football player, ex-All-Pro Oiler for a number of years....and Da Kid teaches all four of his children. And, I told him, "Guess who I drew in today? The youngest member ever of the United States Olympic Swim Team....Eddie Gilbert in 1948, and he came home w/ a gold medal." And, we smiled at each other. It went well, and we are of course greatly saddened, but moving on. And, we are pleased for Ole Buckley's existence elsewhere because life here had not been much fun the last year. He went out kidding me as he's always done. Y'all have a good one..... ( : Buckette
