Columns. Blogs. Musings, postulations, positions, provocations.
The wonderful opportunity to move someone to thought or action or enlightenment. This then has been the goal of my enduring eloquence. To educate, motivate, insinuate, exacerbate, rarely placate. I do like to report on the state of affairs with my own intuitive if liberal bent. Coming up with well thought and well written observation and analysis is my much embraced daily charge. Its what keeps my juices juicy.
And with that in mind a Huge Thanks to Todd Hinze. Very kind words that are appreciated more than you can know. And to the rest of you readers that have reached out and let me know that you have been touched by my words. The fact that you are out there, that you get the message, have been ticked off, been made to smile, or experienced any other emotional response, lets me know this is a truly worthy endeavour. I’m glad to be judged by my affection and dedication to the spoken and written word. A great way to really get to know someone is by listening to or reading them, beats the murmurs and whispers of unknown agendas every time.
Thanks for being here.
And this from a yellowed 1979 Omaha World Herald article covering Girls High School Sports: “Sophomore Linda Kunasek should be the team’s ‘sprint star’ and sophomore Shelly Benson is the strongest distance runner, Scheer reports. Senior Diane Derby is a good high jumper, Felicia Collins sprints well, and senior Sheryl Goodbarn is the team’s best for hurdling. Scheer feels Burke will be able to put together a fairly good medley relay team…” Denny Scheer coached Linda throughout her tenure at Burke, she qualified for and medaled at the state meet in the short sprints and relays. The fact that she still competes at a national level, is involved administratively locally, regionally, and nationally, volunteers her time and effort, and is much loved and respected in our sport. You need to know this about her, a fine competitor and individual, for life.
