Had that ballgame in Marseille the other night. Naturally I sprained my ankle again even though it was taped. Not only that, but we got beat again. More luck! Guess I'm getting too old for these games. I suppose I'll be an old die hard like your dad and mine when it comes to sports. Was chasing PW's until late last night. Been sleeping most of the day. Go on guard again at good old midnight. More fun. No more letters since the one the other day. This mail service is enough to drive a guy batty. I guess it hasn't got far to go with me. Got to go eat supper, dinner or what ever you want to call it. To us it is just plain chow three times a day.
