The Story Behind an Airplane Ride and a Couple of Stories

Lynn and I were on our way to Washington, D.C., to visit our son David, and his girlfriend Lisa, in November 2015.  We were sitting in adjoining aisle seats, and a nice young woman, Anna, had the misfortune of sitting in the seat next to me.  It has been well documented, by self-admission, how I will talk to any unfortunate soul within range about this book.  On this flight, Anna was my target...When the plane landed, and I turned on my phone to check my email; imagine to my great shock and delight, I had received a long-anticipated email from Lisa with the wonderful story (that involved me) which you can find in the chapter Triples on p.232!  I read it through, smiling the entire way at my own expense, and turned to Anna.  “Look”, I said, “this is amazing, this is the story I told you I was waiting for, look at the date, it is today”  As promised by Anna, I also  got a great story from her boyfriend Billy which is in the chapter Love and Baseball, on p.45.
