THE EAGLE HAS (CRASH) LANDED
Well a whole bunch of family and
friends gathered at my daughter and son-
in-law's house Sunday to watch the Super
Bowl and cheer on the Philadelphia Eagles.
After consuming tgons of food and cheering
wildly when the Eagles scored first most
everyone had an overwhe;ming feeling of
confidence. I didn't. Though I don't follow
football all that closely I had a very uneasy
feeling that suggested "our team" was playing
less than its very best. With the score close
throughout much of the game that feeling
seemed to grow. And with just seconds left
it became very clear that this was not going
to be a night for the eagle to score...that is..
soar! I was looking for something positive
tio take away from the game. But the only
thing that came to me was the thought I
might be expected to climb a pole if the
Eagles had won. We've only got one old
telephone pole close by with a street lamp
on top and, I suppose, a lot of splinters
sticking out of that wood. Not having to
climb it is. I admit, a relief. And oh, one
other good thing. There are a lot of left
overs! Hope you enjoyed the game and
that all your NEWS is good!
