BAW: " Truth HURTS! OUTSTANDING!!!"

Brehman60: "Thank you WM for a great video! The Truth is often inconvenient and hard to accept. But it is still, and always, the Truth. Diversity is our error. Looks like it finally got bad enough in Europe. They have awakened. God Bless them! I think its bad enough here in Canada, but I am still part of the "Fringe Minority with Unacceptable Views"."

Rob, as an aside, I see you are a sports memorabilia aficionado and I too collect but not as prolific as you but want to share from 2011 and then 2017 to 2025 I had the marvelous opportunity to shag in-game foul balls as an Arizona Diamondbacks Golden Glovers, https://t.co/cT6SiPj3CD, (that's me in the attached link) and drive the Bullpen Carts from 2018 to 2022 .
I drove Collin McHugh of the Astros as the first use of the bullpen cart in the New Era!(https://t.co/aSHONvMvbf)
I know you will appreciate this minor historical sport point . . . 😀

@Fastballer_34 @PatriciaHeaton Rob, I am right there with you; I just discovered ELR in 2026 and fortunately they are sequentially running the sitcom on MeTV nightly. I watch it before retiring nearly every night guaranteeing I retire after good belly laughs and a lightened heart! BW

Immediately when I saw @Hot_Pepper76 'X' post, "Diamond Girl", my heart leaped, as it always does when I here this S&C's song or hear something about S&C; the reason being, back in 1976, in Reseda, CA, I worked at a high-end Pizzeria, 'Numero Uno', with a young co-worker named Stephen Williams. I was a student at CSUN working my way through college when our paths crossed. One day, Stephen needed a lift home as his car was out of commission. Riding in my 1973 Datsun pickup truck, as we passed CSUN at the intersection of Nordhoff St and Zelzah Ave, "Diamond Girl" came over the radio and Stephen excitedly started exclaiming he loved when he would hear this song on the airwaves. He proceeded to tell me how HE had written this song about his-then girlfriend and as a singer-songwriter his aunt, his then agent, had shopped his song around and S&C picked it up for $500! As the song played in the background, it was exciting to listen to Stephen excitedly tell the story about how he wrote it about his girlfriend, his aunt shopping it around, it getting picked up and reworked by S&C, and now (1970's) as it played over the airways, it always gave him a joyous thrill.

Ever since that day in 1976, EVERY time I hear the song, I get a gleeful thrill knowing I know the "rest-of-the-story" and ALWAYS utter Stephen Williams name in his honor and recognition and acknowledgement of his pride in this song making it to the airwaves, ESPECIALLY because it was 'Seals and Crofts' who got it to the airwaves!!!

RIP "Dash" Crofts . . . .

P.S. Stephen, if you happen to see this post, I think of our encounter often and hope your life was further blessed!

My encounter with the Legend, Chuck Norris, was in 1968, while in junior high, when I went for an introductory karate lesson in his Chatsworth, CA, school where the instructor was demonstrating "precision" high kicks on me to impress my mother on the safety , precision, the skillful balance of the sport in an effort convince her to permit me to participate in the sport. While the instructor was looking at my mother and talking, a high kick caught me under the nose, lifted me a foot off the floor, and flew me back into the wall where I promptly crumpled to the ground . . . needless to say, my mother decided against allowing me to participate in the sport, much to my regret.

That evening, I get a call from Chuck himself, checking to see if I was okay, and I believe to make sure my parents weren't upset, and trying to talk me into taking the classes once he knew there were no hard feelings. I told him my mother, a doctor who did not want to put her son in harms way, disallowed me to participate . . .

From that day forth though, and I am 70 now, EVERY SINGLE TIME I see or hear mention of Chuck Norris, I flash back with an immediate HUGE grin that I had gotten that connective "touch" from the Legend that always made me feel directly akin . . .
