[SkateDC] on the subject of kudos

[George Marinkovich]

Thank you for your very nice words, Céline.  You are much too kind.  

A
 common affliction with which many Canadians suffer on a daily basis.  
Alas, for them it's a losing battle.  

Canadians are justly 
renowned for being among the nicest people on earth, curling, and eating
 poutine.  Sometimes all three at the same time!  

And to judge 
from the past Olympics, you're getting that hockey thing figured out 
pretty well too.

As always, looking forward to skating with you 
when you're down our way again.

Cheers,
George

P.S.  As
 for the texts, don't worry, I'm not a good enough writer to make them 
any shorter.  Ernest Hemingway I'm not.

Well, while we all are on the subject of kudos, (word
 I did not know before 
I read it from you - 'cause my french 
language -  I understood it is a 
praising remark...):   Many 
praising remarks to you, George, especially for 
your chronicles.
They
 are small gems of a beautiful literary flavour, they are a pleasure to 
read,
 full of lively and interesting details and humour.
You have a gift 
to transform even the smallest event or point of view into a 
journey
 of ideas and feelings !

I am too far from DC most of the time 
unfortunately, but you keep on making 
me feel connectd to the 
wonderful world of WAR!

I hope you continue with your texts, and 
PLEASE, don't make them any 
shorter!

Happy skating!

Céline
