I just said something exuberant to my wife Joanne and her response was “Sure, dream on, Fred”. My response to her was “That’s a subject for a blog.”
And here we go: “Dream on” is the perfect subject for a blog, less than one week after the fourth annual Gotham Picnic softball game which was covered last Sunday by Sunday blogger and my first baseman Corey Bearak.
So many unusual things happened in that game that one could call it a “dream game”. There was so much self congratulatory talk about how well a player was doing, or could’ve done when he was young or just plain imagined, that one could’ve easily said in a trash talking vein: “dream on”. But no!
John Lennon wrote: “You May say I’m a dreamer. But I’m not the only one” (Imagine)!
If you don’t dream, then they can’t possibly come true. Corey did make the final play allowing me to exclaim “It’s great to be YOUNG and a Batmen!” (without a scintilla of irony).
So to all, I exclaim DREAM ON!
