As I am seeing at the first picture of our grandson, born an hour ago in Zurich, I am trying to remember what are my first ever recollections as a child. . . . it seems so strange that the small shy child I can visualise, hiding behind the door when his elder sister's friends were visiting, is a grand-father two times over . . .

So, I'm reading an article about Lance Armstrong's Oprah interview, and I came across a bit that got me wondering whether the writer was being sarcastic...

Quote:
Apparently Winfrey, who is the personification of hard-hitting journalism, had 112 questions prepared for the disgraced cyclist.
Surely.

Born in Zurich, Polish mother, both parents American citizens and likely to live in America for most of his early life, I doubt if cricket is a game he will follow. I would love him to play it, of course
