I love Boston sports and refuse to cheer for any team outside of New England. Unless of course its USC football.

"The USC Trojans?" my friends asked when I jumped on the USC bandwagon last season.

However, Patti Langdon, 65, was able to use her local Classifieds to find the son she had put up for adoption 43 years ago.

Goal #1 was to ask my junior high classmate Amy if she wanted to 'go out with me'. Now, I didn't have the faintest clue what was involved in 'going out' with a girl, but I knew that Amy had breasts, so I was willing to figure it out.
