Now that I am home from vacation, with a newly repaired internet connection, I hope to see you at our next Readers' Corner discussion.  Please join us for our next chat in  #readers_corner at 8:30 P.M. (EDST) August 25th, 2018 -- 00:30  A.M. (GMT) August 26th -- for a discussion of "The Umpire"  by Adan Berkowitz.

This story, deals with a couple of topics dear to my heart, fatherhood and youth athletics.  It's a pleasant read, and on the surface at least, deals with the issues faced by all amateur sports officials (the ability to live with the consequences of a bad decision as well as the ability to deal with the parents who take sports a bit to seriously.)  It also deals with more lasting decisions of one's personal life.  It's provided by one of our favorite sources, The Saturday Evening Post.  I think it will make for an interesting discussion.

The story is available on line at:  http://www.saturdayeveningpost.com/2018/07/06/post-fiction/contemporary-fiction-art-entertainment/the-umpire.html
