Well, let me tell ya, these here memorial boxes, they ain’t just any ol’ boxes. They’re special, ya see? Like, for keepin’ things that mean somethin’ after someone’s gone. Not like them fancy jewelry boxes or nothin’. These are for holdin’ memories, the kind that make ya smile and maybe cry a little bit too. I seen folks usin’ ’em for all sorts of things. Pictures, mostly. You know, snapshots of birthdays, weddings, just everyday stuff. Little Johnny grinnin’ with his first fish, Grandma bakin’ her famous apple pie. Things…

Well, now, lemme tell ya about the 1971 Richmond football team. They wasn’t the fanciest bunch, but they sure did play with heart! They was out there representin’ the University of Richmond, playin’ football like it was a fight for survival, y’know? They were part of the Southern Conference back then, which, I reckon, wasn’t as big as the ones from them big cities, but it still meant somethin’.

Well, let me tell ya about this place called Lakewood Tennis Center. It’s out there in Lakewood, California, at 4212 Clubhouse Dr, right by Lakewood Park. Now, I ain’t no fancy tennis player, but I’ve seen folks goin’ there, swingin’ their rackets and chasin’ them little yellow balls all over the place. They got somethin’ for everyone, whether you’re just startin’ out or if you’re some big shot in the tennis world. Now, I ain’t much for big words, but let me tell ya, this place ain’t no small-time operation….

You know, those head tennis shoes, they’re somethin’. Real somethin’. Everyone’s got shoes, gotta have ’em, right? But these ones, they’re different. People keep talkin’ ’bout them. Head somethin’ or other. Kinda like them fancy cars, ya know? Smooth and quick. Heard folks sayin’ they fit real good. Like they’re made just for your feet. No squeezin’ or rubbin’.
