Imagine if this "unspeakable tragedy" had not occurred forty-five years ago this Monday night- as announced by Howard Cosell on Monday Night Football as a college freshman Rumpole watched in shock and sadness.

IMAGINE
Imagine the power of words; of art; of song.
During the Gold Medal match of women's beach volleyball at the Olympics, the Canadian and Brazilian teams went at it like it was a hockey match- or a prosecution discovery violation in Miami.
Heated words were exchanged. There were nasty glares.

| We went to a beach volleyball match and a hockey game broke out. |
And then the DJ (did you know the beach volleyball Olympic matches even had a DJ? We did not) played John Lennon's Imagine.
And smiles and peace broke out.
Imagine that.
This Sports Illustrated site has the video. Take a look and brighten up your Saturday.

IMAGINE
Imagine that John Lennon had lived to celebrate his 70th birthday on Saturday.
I wonder if you could.....

IMAGINE
Imagine if we didn't live in a society where handgun violence was so accepted and where even mentally ill people have no trouble getting guns.
The (CDC) estimated 52,447 deliberate and 23,237 accidental non-fatal gunshot injuries in the United States during 2000. Compare that with a total of just over 58,000 casualties for the entire Vietnam war. It's a war every year on US streets.
It's nice to imagine. Nothing happens, nothing ever gets achieved or created until one person says "hey...Imagine if we could...."
