I can still remember opening my mailbox in the Woodridge Post Office and scanning each envelope’s return addresses to see if any of the letters were from the ten colleges I had applied to. It was the Spring of 1967 and my hands shook as I shuffled the envelopes. If one of those letters was from a college, I tore it open and quickly read the first sentence. Curious aren’t you? How many schools accepted him. Well, three out of the ten made me happy. Well, in baseball batting 300 is considered an excellent average. Thank G-d for safety schools.
Well, life is circular; this time (2016) I open emails without the shakes. Instead of acceptances into colleges, it is acceptances into film festivals.
Here is my first one. YIPPIE KI-YAY COYOTE!
