All men dream: but not equally.
Those who Dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds
Wake in the day to find that it was vanity; but the
Dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they
May act their dream with open eyes, to make it Possible.
This I did.

My era.
For us old guys:

Frank Emmanuel, Paul Naumoff, Tom Fischer
Hacksaw, Kiner, Jackie Walker

Not another trio like that until Al, Raynoch, Emo

And none since.

with his usual story telling

I was not aware of the Florida angle

Once ran into Mr. Kiner at an event in Tampa (a few moons ago) and he was as nice as he could be, but if you looked into his eyes you could see his competativeness
Wish we had someone like him in Inge's room today
