I’d like to send a big shout-out to the Lady Hornets for their rather impressive victory in the opening round of the 57th district tournament. Although I’m no longer a member of the team, you young ladies will always be special to me. I love you all and want you to know that I’m still your number one fan! ( That’s right! I’m a bigger fan than Gumby! Well actually Gumby is bigger around but I’m speaking metaphorically ).
