A compilation of selected columns from 20 plus years as a sports writer for a small-town Oklahoma newspaper. The author gives her opinions and observations on subjects ranging from child abuse (too young kids in too many sports) to failure to launch a kite to the thrill of going to the World Series. The reader also gets a glimpse of life in the '40s and '50s and sometimes mirrors history during the 20 years from 1992 to 2012.
