Yes. We have a peak in the mountains nearby called 'Aanamudi'. Some 3400' tall. There is a good trail as people often climb it. The younger guys in our locality said people of my age group couldn't climb it and make it to the top. Four of us took up the challenge. We started out on a Sunday morning with some 15 young fellows for company. We did climb it and reached the top before noon and got back home by evening.

Yes ... after being the only survivor of a car accident that put me in a wheel chair, I was told by nerve specialists that the crushed hips and lumbar vertebrae meant that I would never walk again ... 16 months later I was hobbling around on crutches ... a few months later and I was limping around with a cane ... now I jog, carrying the cane, and the cane seldom touches the ground ... and I am back teaching martial arts ...

Yes..when I entered UCLA I roomed with a friend and her mom..at that time Bullock's Wilshire was right down the street from campus. I told my friend I was going there to try to get a part-time job. She said I shouldn't bother..she and some of her other friends had tried and they were told there were no openings. I went anyway and got hired on the spot. I didn't want my friend to feel bad so I told her that a job had opened up right before I applied...if that had been the truth, no one at Bullock's ever told me. :)
