history seems to be becoming increasingly important to me, and I feel the need
to reach out to those who are connected with my past. I would even like to
contact my crew, Steve Snoddy and Rocky Rhodes, if only to tell them how
sorry I was I couldn't have done more for them, and for all the times I hung
them out when we were flying together. Well, enough sniveling.
