[Healeys] Playing PunchBuggy

[Alan Seigrist]

Our family friends, the Pinkavas, have four sons.  When we were kids in the
early 70's, they would stand in a circle and each punch the arm of the
person to their right as hard as possible until only one person was left
standing.  Mr. Pinkava was a Marine aviator who, by then, was flying &
fighting the commies in Laos for Air America w/ pops.

Actually, they are some of the finest people I have ever had the pleasure to
have known!
