Alex and her Raiders hold off Georgia State Champs!
Our dear Alex, fifteen-year-old daughter of Sister Fran, played tough defense today as her Brandon, Florida, Raiders held the line 0 - 0 against four-time Georgia State champs, er, the girls in the yellow (name escapes me). Alex, seen here getting ready to put a hurtin' on the ball, can kick the golden orb a mile. --Tom Todaro, somewhere in East Cobb County, Georgia.
Learned on The Writer's Almanac, today is Groucho Marx's birthday. Groucho said, courtesy of TWA:
Marriage is a wonderful institution. That is, if you like living in an institution.
And from a Groucho Marx Web site:
How do you feel about women's rights? I like either side of them.
And:
I've had a perfectly wonderful evening. But this wasn't it.
