It's not 16 inch softball without a broken finger!
Photo of me (left) and friend with dueling broken fingers. A typical no glove 16 inch softball hazard.

45 years ago, I met President Jimmy Carter as he arrived at Thornridge HS for a town hall in 1979. In 4th grade, I skipped school to see him. He shook my hand - a moment I'll never forget! Found the transcript recently; it's a must-read. RIP, Mr. President. www.presidency.ucsb.edu/documents/do...

As a recovering Catholic, I was hesitant to watch Conclave. Who knew it would be so riveting? Great writing. Phenomenal acting. I see a few Oscar noms in their future! #ConclaveMovie
