You’ve Been Gone for Eight Years and Five Months

*** begin quote ***

It is November of 1980, and
The Philosopher says that Love
is the child of Plenty and Want.
You’ve been gone for eight years and five months,

but you’re with me wherever I go -
you’re with me at Manhattan College;
you’re with me in Philosophy 101;
you’re with me at the end of the beginning.

Mike: What do you think? Is this a Jasper? Or just a finding? fjohn

Dear John, We have a Joseph R. McCarthy in the Class of 1984 who was a teacher and who might be the J R in question. Mike

McCarthy, Joseph R. [MC1984]

[JR: Mike's the expert in all people Jasper, so we'll call it that way. Now who is "jayarespoems" and what's the connection to MC?  ]

FRASER: WHY LUPUL’S CATCH-AND-DROP GOAL WAS ALLOWED
2/7/2012 6:03:30 PM
KERRY FRASER

*** begin quote ***

With the airborne puck located behind Ferriero and Lupul in varying degrees they both had to twist and reach back to catch the puck. From this posture, with their skates already in motion and as they continued to move, it was a natural motion and reaction to twist forward and drop the puck to the ice onto their stick.

It would take a Michael Jordan manoeuver to bring the puck from behind the back or through their legs which would also involve a closing of the hand on the puck. As a matter of fact my daughter Jessica, a four-year point guard at Manhattan College in N.Y. could dribble two basketballs at one time, bringing both behind her back and through her legs. She of course wasn’t wearing hockey gloves at the time! Travelling in the modern game of basketball is pretty much non-existent as well.

What I’m suggesting here is that neither Ferriero nor Lupul could catch the puck and drop (or “place” it as the rule states) behind them nor would it be reasonable to expect that any player would do so.

?Fraser?, ?Jessica? [MC????]

[JR: Could NOT quickly find any such person? Maybe a different last name or it was a while ago. Have to rely on others to fix this. But I did love the "traveling non-existent" comment. So true. Especially in the Pros. Bball was a game of style and grace. Now it's push and shove. Mens and womens. All about offense to make an "exciting product" for the consumer. Never forget it's all about money! Argh!!!]

*** begin quote ***

As the father of a BC senior, I’ve been reading and enjoying Boston College Magazine for several years. The excerpt from Clare Dunsford’s book in the most recent issue took my admiration to a new level. I was deeply moved by Dunsford’s aching honesty and penetrating eloquence. Her article is as fine a piece of writing as I’ve encountered in any publication.

A long time ago at Manhattan College, I had a terrific poetry teacher named John Fandel (a first-rate poet) who told his class of sophomoric skeptics/skeptical sophomores that “writing at its best is like religion at its truest: It’s a way of redeeming experience from incoherence.” My thanks to Dean Dunsford for the reminder of the wisdom in those words.

Dear John,

This just popped up. I do not know why I did not see it before. I believe that this very well could be “our” Peter from the Class of 1969.
