EXCERPT

It is amazing how time helps. In time, I have learned to overcome my own albatross. I have learned to live again, to love again. Life is a gift reads a plaque on our dining room wall, and that sums up what I have gained from the three kitties that saved my life. From Coco, I learned to care again. From Kitty, I learned to love again. From Pom Pom, I have learned how to cope with my own demons, the effects of aging being one of these. Pom Pom has taught me to accept what is and then to move onward. Yes, I have learned plenty from my three kitties.

I remember the O J Simpson trial so well. I remember where I was when the verdict was rendered. Do you?

MY FRIDAY 56

An athlete’s worth in college sports can’t be separated from his performance on the field or court or diamond or on the track. We were commodities, and as a young black man coming to terms with the legacy of slavery I did not want to be a commodity.

MY BOOK BEGINNINGS

The clerk, Deirdre Robertson, stumbled over his name, and for just a moment a last bit of hope hung there on her voice. But I knew. I’d known from the beginning, from the moment I walked into that courtroom a year earlier and saw that jury. I could see in their eyes the need to settle some score. And I was the only prosecutor who knew what the score was. Still, to hear it announced like that was like a swift baseball bat to the stomach.
