Learning Inline Skating

By Mario V. Farina

This is a true story. At Age 75, I determined to learn inline skating. My wife, Ann, said "no!" but I insisted. I donned protective clothing and made my attempt. I had forgotten to add one piece of safety equipment. Ann laughed so hard, she almost had an accident.
