Gryphondear's Word of the Day

I stopped Vali in the hallway to ask if he were going to the Renaissance Festival this weekend. He told me no, or at least not on Saturday as he would be flying. The weather predictions sound really good, and a plane is available. He has been piloting for a year now. It sounds like he will enjoy himself.

Not that I would never take up aviating, but the sport seems a tad dangerous to me. I always liked the story my sister tells about her husband. He told her he was thinking of buying a motorcycle. She thought about that for a minute and said that she might take flying lessons. That was the end of both conversations as far as I know.

Our quote for the day is from Bob Hope (b. 1903), U.S. comedian. quoted in Reader’s Digest (Pleasantville, N.Y., Oct. 1958):

     If you watch a game, it’s fun. If you play it, it’s recreation. If you work at it, it’s golf.
