I'm gratified by all those who took the time to guess about the secret friendship expert but there was a clear winner. I don't how how she knew (unless she reads the Wall Street Journal's sports pages) but Dana Brecher (above left) got it right. Well done!
The quote came from Boston Celtic great Bill Russell. I always knew Russell (below left) is something of an intellectual Renaissance man, but that doesn't make the well-crafted truth he expressed so elegantly any less impressive. Oh yeah, he is one of the greatest hoop player who ever lived. One of a select group of athletes who forever changed the way his sport is played. Russell was talking about his friendship with his former coach and mentor Red Auerbach (right). Together, they helped the Celtics win 11 NBA championships in 13 years. For more information about the book Russell has just written about his life-long friend click here.
Next, watch this space for an updated and uplifting medical report.
Thanks again for reading.
HERE ARE SOME RANDOM THOUGHTS AND IMAGES ABOUT ANYTHING THAT I FOUND INTERESTING. HOPEFULLY, THERE WILL BE A FEW THINGS WORTH READING THAT HAVE BEEN ACCIDENTALLY LEFT AMONG THESE MENTAL SCRIBBLES. THERE MIGHT EVEN BE FOUND A FEW LAUGHS AMONG THESE THOUGHTS THAT HAVE BEEN ACCUMULATED DURING A LIFE THAT WAS ALWAYS FASCINATED WITH THE SECRETS OF EXISTENCE. SO GO AHEAD AND LAUGH YOUR ASS OFF. I CAN'T THINK OF ANYTHING MORE IMPORTANT OR WORTHWHILE TO LEAVE BEHIND. ANYONE WHO REALLY KNOWS ME KNOWS I'VE ALWAYS TRIED TO LIVE UP TO THE WORDS: "FUCK 'EM IF THEY CAN'T TAKE A JOKE."
