Of course me being me far as i am concerned i am just in the prime of my life at 70 but i think my wife would tell you different i am sure. Problem with my wife like most wife's they have this annoying habit of telling the truth which shatters our fantasy day dreams.

I got to tell you this, all through my life in one way or another my friends have always said i lived on the edge and take to many chances, but looking back i don't regret many of them. Also today a nice surprise was the chairmen of the WBHOF has asked me to become a member of his selection team who of course decide which fighters will go into their Hall of Fame. To be honest i was quite flattered and more then a little surprised. Perhaps he has been secretly reading my long boring posts on here Who know if my luck keeps up next year i could be on the panel of the IBHOF or perhaps even sitting along side some of the so called experts broadcasting the fights live Well at least i would tell it as it is. Not like some of them who at times you would think by their remarks there was only one man in the ring during a fight.Then you watch the fight on video and you realize that the fight was in fact pretty even.
Whoa! Happy Birthday and congrats on being named to the selection team! I think you are very deserving and,my friend,you are never boring. I usually agree with you about 99.999 percent and have always found you to be a decent,fair and intelligent man. Good luck with the newfound responsibility and here's to 70 more great years!
