Conversation with a Friend

Two gifted people, two very different life stories.

Pelé the best soccer player I've seen, and Diego Armando Maradona, both born poor, one in Brazil, the other a few hundred miles away in Argentina. The first built a capitalistic empire with all the money he collected by playing professionally, since he was sixteen!, The other, got fat, then addicted to cocaine, and lost the South African World Cup, as the manager of his country's team.

Two countries, with oil, Libya and Mexico, by all means our system down here is not perfect, but we have nothing like the Gaddafis' banana republic of Libya.

I hope our Libyan brothers and sisters, find a sensible solution to the mess the Gaddafis' are leaving.
