I WAS in print … at least until Old Slump closed our alternative school magazine and had to recall all the copies from the newsagents when someone spotted Santa's whopping stiffy on the cover of the Christmas issue. I'm amazed I managed to talk my way out of that one.
Speedway, my perfect entry has always been to make the biggest splash possible and to try to soak the crowd around the edge of the pool. We used to play a really dumb game of leaping from the high board and adopting different poses to try to make the loudest CRACK when we hit the water. Boy did we get red and bruised, but we had a lot of fun.
Katherine, I always believed in me, too, but then I had a crisis of faith and now I'm more of a Dive-Atheist. If someone can prove to me that I exist I'll start believing again, but so far no joy.

Very good …I always thought you would be in print! Thought it might be a book written by you but this is good… well spotted by Petrea's hubby.
And for all the twists and turns you provide, I bet you get extra points for difficulty, as well as for perfect entry.
I ALWAYS believed in you, Dive!

Dive is always "in"! :-)
Hee hee. Thank you, Ms.M.
Where have I been? Dive, of course you exist, you're in the LA Times.
Nice to have that validation, Petrea.
Now I just need to get to LA and find myself.
