    Chapter 92

    Adam is the type of man that when he believes in something, he will fight for it. He strongly believes that Billy is Olympic material and will see that Billy runs in the Olympics. He believes in the Academy and it's future roll in the world of politics. With those strong beliefs he will fight those who want to destroy those beliefs.

    Gerry will be proud and the people of Liechtenstein will be proud of Billy. A national hero

    Adam is determined to prove Billy is Olympic material. If Adam has his way, he will make sure Billy is ready. With those chalets finished, Adam will need a way to transport those boys.

    The sad part is that the children are the ones who suffer. Under that type of management, in industry, the individual finds another job, the company loses a valuable talent and now has to replace that individual, at a cost for recruitment and training. In the educational field, movement is less available. I think you all handled that appropriately, but I bet he never learned or changed his style.

    “Sir, Johnny is here to see you.” “Come in Johnny, how may I help you?” “I received a letter from Billy. He isn’t happy with his trainer and wanted to know if he could train here with you as a coach.” I found that interesting, “But he needs to be a part of the Olympic team. Don’t they all train together?” “He said they all have the same training sessions but they also have an appointed trainer to work with them on a one on one basis.” “I think we may have to go and visit

    I also read a lot about King Arthur, and maybe that is why I have incorporated much of his 'history' in this story. I think that it should be mandatory reading in primary classes. Pomposity isn't relegated to the old, there are young men who feel, for some strange reason. that they not only know everything but they expect you to agree.

    yes, Adam should have placed an age bracket on his seminars. A sign like 'Grandfather's not wanted'

    They could have been a plant. They certainly didn't have open minds. I'm sure you know people who look at a blue sky and are willing to swear it is yellow and expect people to believe it because of their position. Those two were a little snobbish

    Unfortunately yes, stuffy men who feel that they are way more important then the students. They probably walk around in robes, smoking a cigar. My emiticon

    That is devotion. My family are dog lovers so I have had a lot of experience with having a dog around.

    Monday morning our guests started to arrive, James was on the ball and had sorted out the rooms, the seminar would be over on Friday after dinner. A new group would be arriving Monday morning. I had extra copies of my book for any that hadn’t read it. Welcoming the group,I introduced James who would show them to their rooms. I watched as two left with their luggage at the entrance to the Academy. James looked at me, I shook my head no, James was not a servant. When he came back down a

    I have eaten at that restaurant and then I found out where they sourced some of their food. I want to that shop, bought their salami, cheese and pasta. Cooked it at home, it was close but not quite the same. I didn't have an Italian cooking

    He would have to expand the Academy again. I think we can teach Marcel how top make a good pizza.

    Surely there is an Italian restaurant in your country. In all my travels I was always able to find some form of Italian food.

    You need to take your reading to the bathroom. From my experience you don't get many people bothering you there

    With all of the roadblocks that have been thrown in front of Adam, I have a feeling that this first seminar will prove to be a challenge for him.

    Adam gave seminars at his university before he accepted the job at teh Academy. So he shouldn't have any problems with this seminar.

    I think there are more children in this world who miss the love of a parent or parents. There aren't enough Adams in this world.

    “We arrived just a little after dinner time, Mom had waited, Gerry introduced the boys, lunch was a chef salad with mixed fruit juices. I thought Mom made too much but that wasn't the case. Gerry mentioned to Mom about going to Franco’s for dinner. She thought it was a great idea. I called Bill and invited his family as well, then called Franco’s and made a reservation, I used Bill’s name. That evening, Gerry was excited. “Dad, my gift was delivered right after we ate here last time. Do you
