With the Fly-boys out of contention for Lord Stanley’s Cup and The Phightin’ Phils paving the way for what ought to be another “Come-Back Kiddo” season, you can’t help but feel the electric spirit of sports in the (215).

THAnk you mr. Hertzog for getting me back in the saddle as it feels good to be back in the saddle again. I would also very much like to dedicate this to each of my children who have grown in their own specific ways to make me very proud.
i love each of you equally.
