oh, the perplexities of young adolescent girls and their knights in shining armor…
“not a game” – allen iverson – once the premier guard in the NBA – now, $150 million poorer – begging for a job from the 76ers – a compelling story – compelling biography – you know the kind of people you cheer for, who say all the right things – and you think “this time it’ll be different” – and then they go back and mess you up again – and then again, you give them another chance? that’s iverson – almost psychopathic – if the intellect was there…
“u2 by u2” – great book – great band – just the entries by bono about song lyrics are worth any gifted kid’s read – it’s amazing to me that such a big band could stay together so long – would take a lot of patience – humility
“running to the top” – old book from a world marathon holder in 1968 – i think he kept the record for about 10 years – it was easy to read b/c a lot of the advice is very dated – what was interesting was reading about clayton’s world record day – things didn’t go exactly right – but they almost don’t have to do when it’s your day – anyway, very good read
last week before break – yeah!!!
