I WON I WON

ONCE I HAD A SECRET LOVE

DEALING WITH THE DEVIL

WHO IS BOSS?

THE KIDS LAST FIGHT

I AIN'T MAKING THIS STUFF UP

June 2,1986 Dow Jones closed at record 1909.03
June 30 The Supreme Court ruled that homosexual
relationships, even in private between consenting
adults is not protected by the constitution
The decision upheld an 1816 Georgia law banning sodomy
Hands Across America--6,000,000 people linked hands
in a chain that stretched 4150 miles from New York City
to Long Beach Calif. Broken only in a few desert
stretched to raise $50,000,000 to aid hungry and homeless
The Dow Jones average dropped a record one day loss--45.75
The three point field goal 16.9 introduced as well
as TV replays to check scoring and timing decisions
I remember not being able to dunk or run with the ball
We used to jump after every basket and women started mid court
My niece married her significant other and she served in Iraq
