8.28.2001 Dan was guest speaker at the Gainesville Kiwanis Club meeting. His 30-minute speech on the stories behind the Sporting Life columns covered everything from ill-mannered bulls to naked men driving tractors. One audience member suggested Dan give up writing and become a stand-up comedian. Not sure if the man really enjoyed Dan's speech — or is simply tired of reading Dan's work each week in The Times.
