I never said I agreed on everything, but for the most part, I couldn't pick 
the draftees out of a lineup--unlike, say the starting lineup for 
Portland...  :>)

Here's the rather embarrassed Celtics Beagle having to admit that I'm only 
able to read maybe one-tenth of the daily Celtics-related posts.  I miss a 
lot of stuff, but I can't really keep up with everything.  I'm sort of hit 
and miss, especially since I'm no good at the virtual GM thing.  I'm just 
happy if someone can keep me clear on which player is which, and Ray--up to 
a point, anyway--did that, as did several other people.

I'm not personally enamored of Ray--and had no idea he had said anything 
untoward to you--or I might have forgotten, an unfortunate one of several 
medical problems I'm dealing with.

Well, I agree that he could pontificate with the most self-righteous of 
them.  Hard for me to complain, though, as I've been known to make Charlton 
Heston-like pronouncements  myself from time to time.

Probably I'm just not paying attention.  I'll have to work on keeping up 
better with things.

I did indeed.  I was just today listening to Archie Fisher and Garnet 
Rogers "Off the Map" concert album.  Then followed up with Stan's 
"Fogarty's Cove" CD.  Oh, how I wish musicians like them were willing to 
come to Florida.  If I ever win the lottery, I'm going to start holding a 
festival in January.  The place should be packed.  If not, I'll at least 
get a great seat...
