Razzak, just a little follow-up.

First, although I have more to learn, I was truly enthralled over the
past few days learning about and using multiple listboxes on a form.  I
borrowed some ideas/object from RRBYWnn as often as I could and used
them on a little Cross Country (XC) project that has buried me for the
past 2 weeks.  Really cool AND USEFUL stuff, there, and I hope to soon
extend my abilities to apply this functionality.
 
Second, as I've mentioned in the past, my volunteer work for the year is
almost 100% comprised of serving as parent-coach of middle school XC at
my children's school.  Although I do love the work that my Co-Coach and
I do with the kids, it is almost and additional full-time job from early
August through late October.  Otherwise, I'd probably be seeing y'all
next weekend.

That said, I want to tell you that I'm not just goofin' off while
missing a big face-to-face with you and all the RBTI extended-family.
In this, my 3rd year as coach, we have grown to 48 kids, from grades 5
through 8.  I believe that it is now the largest single sports-program
at this fairly small, Catholic school.  

Beyond the growth and the opportunity to help introduce kids to a
healthy lifestyle activity, we are also striving for top-flight success.
Yesterday, at our West Tennessee Middle School Cross Country Regional
Championship, a large meet hosted by myself and a another
volunteer-parent coach here in town.  (Believe me, I sympathize all the
more now with what it takes to do something like this, or the
conference.)  Well, when the gun went off and the dust finally settled
yesterday afternoon, my boys had finished 4th and my girls had WON,
GOING AWAY!  Both teams thereby qualified for the State Championship
next Saturday, in Knoxville.  I believe that they/we will perform well
next week and that my girls have a real chance to earn their first-ever
state title.

Finally, while I will be coaching and cheering for my kids, I will also
be missing this RBTI affair more than any other, as it is my
gut/hunch/perception that there is about to be another inflection point
in the history of RBase and it is surely for the positive.  That, I
think, is a perfect parallel to what I have been able to contribute to
the kids and the XC program at their school.

In short, although I will certainly miss seeing everyone and the
learning opportunity, I am so proud of these kids and their
accomplishments that I felt compelled to offer some background.

Y'all have fun and, if we win, I'll certainly let you know.

Steve in Memphis, but Headin' to Knoxville With a Passel of Ponies!

Oh Steve,

I don't know what to tell you. Bill D. will have to explain things I
don't know. But that's between Bill D. and myself.

In any case, you've got mail ....

Have a great day!

Very Best R:egards,

Razzak.
