They seemed to be under the impression that yelling and arguing would get them what they wanted or even explaining that they were old and that the seats were more comfortable here. So there we were an old hand and a newbie, playing against two young bucks. I played defense because the games lasted longer that way. My strategy was to block everything and just keep feeding passes up to my partner. We lost every game – we could not score. I bought a rather large and heavy 22″ statue of Buddha in a little antique shop in the Upper East Side of Manhattan many many years ago. When I took it home I was trying to clean it up and noticed the bottom had a stopper, like a large screw of some kind. I shook the object and something sounded loose inside it. With a lot of patience and care, I opened it and voila!! Inside they were a $20 bill and 7 singles!! I still have everything,I kept them for good luck.
