I had a paper route in Appleton delivering the Post Crescent. In one of my apartment buildings, I had been delivering a paper to this guy for about a year. Now he was gone at times, but always paid when he got back.  This time he owed me for 3 months.  So I knock on the door, and a different guy opens it. Much younger, early 20's and not in his 40's.  Anyway, he says he moved in at the beginning of the month. He asks what he owes, and I tell him, well, since you have been here only three weeks, that's all he needed to pay me.  He asked how much the other guy owed and I told him.  So, he paid not only his, but the two months the other guys owed.  I found out over the next few weeks that he was a ballplayer for the Appleton Foxes.  His name?   Bucky Dent.  Now, in the same building, he had a teammate that I was also delivering a paper to.  His name was Rich Gossage.   If I had only known, I could have had a couple of good autographs.</p></blockquote><p></p>
