Mr. Franco lives in my area and on the off season I sometimes see him in the stores. One morning I was at the bagel store,buying what else,Bagels and Franco was talking to the owner, he looked over at me and nodded at me and I said to him,"Didn' you play baseball for Lafayette High School?" He nodded and said,"Yes." I replied with , "So what have you been doing with yourself lately?" He looked a little stun, then he laughed and I told him don't lose your sense of humor John.Don't worry about the world coming to an end today.
