It rained the other night--always welcome in Northern California--and I felt some twinges in my right ankle.  It took me a few moments to realize that this my old football injury from St. John's greeting me from across 45 years. There are some things the body doesn't forget.

I will never forget you going out for that pass, then falling. We were stoned of course so broke out lately. Had the same experience myself when I fell on wet grass playing football with Jai when he was five. Heard the crack of my ankle breaking as I hit the ground on my back. Looked up at Jai and his buddies, cracking up.
