I was questioned about my story about picking up Ed at the airport when he judged the national. Did anyone think that was anything other than a compliment about a judge so secure in their abilities that they didn't have to limit a conversation? I had a number of people who gave me other stories, but one person did think I was insulting a judge. What do you think? Evan Ginsburg ..................................... I thought I understood that.......... I was setting watching the classes at the Canadian Nationals some years ago and the specials judge came up and set down beside me and started talking about dogs - good ones he had seen recently, etc. You know, there might have been some judges that I would have questioned, but this one is one of the more respected anywhere and no one doubts his honesty. I certainly didn't. No I will not name him! Later watching him judge specials, I could see him do totally different than the class judge. He does what he wants in his ring at the time of the judging. Maybe that is not true of all judges. I wish it were. I'd show under him or Ed anytime. Does anyone really think Ed doesn't have a mind of his own? Well, maybe he is the insecure type who tries to be politically correct and not offend anyone! <G> Dave _______________________________________ No viruses found in this outgoing message Scanned by iolo AntiVirus 1.5.5.5 http://www.iolo.com ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2007.
