Lots of people have ideas. Some say they do their best thinking in the shower. Josh Bonventre’s big idea came while driving home from his day job as a physical education teacher in the Shoreham-Wading River school district.

A few years ago, Bonventre was a typical Long Island hus-band and dad of three. Now he is the co-founder of RampShot, an outdoor game designed for four players, which involves four racquetball-like spheres

and two ramps with built-in nets. Two players make up a team and score points by either tossing the ball into the net or catching the ball after it bounc-es off the top of the ramp.

The idea may sound simple, but taking it from a fleeting daydream in traffic to an award-winning, booming business venture is anything but.

Bonventre, along with help from his friend and co-found-er Kevin Texeira, set up shop in Bonventre’s detached ga-rage at his Center Moriches home about two years ago.

Photo by alex Petroski Josh Bonventre shows off a rampShot prototype.

Today, the garage is bursting at the seams with office furni-ture and packaged RampShots waiting to be shipped.

Texeira has since moved from Mount Sinai to the Finger

Lakes area in upstate New York. He is a national sales manager for a cookie company in addi-tion to his responsibilities with RampShot.

If at first you don’t succeed, try again must have been the mantra for the men accused of attempting to rob two gas stations in Coram within 15 minutes of each other on Saturday, June 6.

Suffolk County Police said in a statement that 27-year-olds Tony Tad-donio, of Medford, and Michael Iovi-no, of Islip, were arrested and charged with second-degree attempted rob-bery and second-degree robbery for their alleged spree on Saturday night.

Taddonio allegedly entered a Su-noco gas station on Route 112 at ap-proximately 6 p.m., armed with what appeared to be a handgun and at-tempted to hold up the clerk. Howev-er, after the clerk grabbed a stick kept behind the counter, Taddonio fled to a 2003 Acura driven by Iovino.

Fifteen minutes later, the men tried their luck a second time. Taddonio entered a Mobil gas station on Middle Country Road, held up the clerk and fled with approximately $350. A 6th Precinct officer, Francesco Saracino, was searching the area for the suspects when he stopped the duo on Route 112 in Coram at about 6:50 p.m.

Police said cash and a BB gun were recovered.

The men were arraigned in First District Court in Central Islip on June 7. According to online court records, Taddonio was released on $20,000 bond bail and Iovino was released on $30,000 bond bail.

Attorneys for Taddonio and Iovino could not be reached for comment.

Suffolk County tackles toxic toy legislationBy phil Corso

Suffolk County is not playing games when it comes to toxic toys.

Legislator Kara Hahn (D-Setauket) saw one of her latest proposals receive unani-mous approval last week when the Suffolk County Legislature approved measures that would ban the sale of any toys con-taining potentially dangerous toxins. The Toxin Free Toys Act zeroes in on six toxins most commonly found in toys marketed to children and will forever ban them once the legislation gets County Executive Steve Bellone’s signature.

Hahn said the initiative came as a re-sponse to a recent report issued by the New York League of Conservation Vot-ers and Clean and Healthy New York that found several children’s products containing carcinogenic components on the shelves of Long Island stores. Most specifically, the legislation targeted dan-gerous materials that are linked to cancer, cognitive impairments, hyperactivity and

genetic disorders in children, Hahn said.“As a mother, I am outraged that chil-

dren’s toys contain these toxic chemicals that can cause cancer, learning and de-velopmental disabilities and respiratory, cardiovascular and gastrointestinal dis-orders,” Hahn said. “By passing this law today, we are acting proactively to pro-tect our children’s health.”

Under the proposal, new children’s products sold in Suffolk County would need to contain less than specified limits in parts per million of the six following components: antimony, arsenic, cadmi-um, cobalt, lead and mercury. The legis-lation pegged the county’s Department of Health Services to head up the operation by notifying retailers by the beginning of 2016 that inspectors would be conducting random checks for toys and other chil-dren’s products containing toxic content using an x-ray fluorescence analyzer.

Clean and Healthy New York released the “Toxic Toys on Long Island” report back in December, which surveyed vari- ous retail spots like Target, Party City,

walmart, The Children’s Place, Macy’s, Ocean State Job Lot and Dollar Tree to find that some products contained po-tentially harmful materials. The report found more than 4,600 children’s prod-ucts and toys contained at least one of 49 hazardous chemicals.

Kathleen A. Curtis, executive director

of Clean and Healthy New York, was one of several health and safety advocates to applaud the proposal as an appropriate response to December’s report.

“In the absence of a strong state or federal law to regulate toxic chemicals in children’s products, it is both laudable and appropriate for Suffolk County to

Town and county officials aren’t tak-ing boating safety lightly, and are urging residents to take precautions while out on the water this summer.

The issue was the topic of discussion at a press conference held at the Sandspit Marina in Patchogue on June 4, follow-ing a hit-and-run inci-dent on May 24. Mark Tricarico, 31, of Selden, was arrested and charged with leaving the scene of a boating accident in-volving injury, accord-ing to a Suffolk County Police Department press release.

Tricarico allegedly crashed a 23-foot boat into the west jetty at the entrance of the Patchogue River on the night of the 24th. One passenger was treated for minor injuries. Tricarico could not be reached for comment.

“If everyone follows safe boating pro-cedures, most accidents can be prevent-ed,” Brookhaven Town Supervisor Ed

Romaine (R) said on June 4, just yards away from the site of the incident.

June and July are typically the busi-est boating months of the year on Long Island, and Romaine, along with Suffolk County Police Marine Bureau Deputy Inspector Ed Vitale, urged boaters to be aware of boating laws in the hope of avoiding a repeat of the events of May 24.

Romaine and Vitale also reiterated some gen-eral boating safety pre-cautions, like avoiding alcohol while operating a boat, being aware of weather forecasts and following paths set by buoys.

“Stay in the navigable channels,” Romaine said.

“Understand what the buoys are for.”Operating boats while intoxicated

was a point everyone touched on.“You don’t see it that often until you

see a boat up on the rocks,” Jesse Ment-zel, a bay constable, said in a one-on-one interview. “It happens, and they could hit another boat just as easily.”

Assistant Deputy County Executive Tim Sini attended the press conference on behalf of Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone (D).

“We want to make one thing clear—boating while intoxicated will not be tol-erated in Suffolk County,” Sini said.

Sini added that there would be check-points and patrols to monitor the water-ways and ensure that everyone remains safe this summer.

Some additional safety precautions suggested by Romaine and Vitale includ-ed a boating course approved by the U.S.

Coast Guard as well as a swimming and first-aid course, operating at safe speeds, and designating an assistant skipper in case you are injured or otherwise unable to assume command of the vessel.

“The water can be a very hostile envi-ronment,” Vitale said. “It’s a beautiful looking place and it is truly, but it can be very hostile to people. You have to pay attention. You have to be aware of the weather. You have to be aware of the currents. This is something that, every now and then, people get out on the wa-ter and they just don’t get it.”

Pushing for a safe boating seasonOfficials pledge crackdown on boating while intoxicated

50 Year Anniversary

Setauket native steps up for Zeldin’s seatBy Phil Corso

Dave Calone has had his eye on the 1st Congressional District representative since the election last November, and he has al-ready seen enough.

U.S. Rep. Lee Zeldin (R-Shirley) un-seated six-term Democrat Tim Bishop by a wide margin — 54 percent of the vote to 45 percent — but Calone, a Setauket native and Port Jefferson high school graduate, said the new congressman’s voting record has moti-vated him to throw his hat into the ring.

“He’s out of step with Long Island and what we need to do to grow this economy,” said Calone, who works as CEO of Jove Eq-uity Partners LLC, a venture capital firm that helps start and build technology com-panies. “I was disappointed to see Tim lose because I thought he had done a good job. When I saw the [floor] votes Zeldin was tak-ing, I felt it was very partisan voting.”

Government tracking website Open-Congress reported Zeldin has voted along party lines 94 percent of the time since taking office in January. Of those votes, Calone said he took issue with Zeldin’s positions in favor of Republican budget plans that cut Homeland Security funding, and he disagreed with the congressman’s remarks referring to President Barack Obama as a monarch.

Jennifer DiSiena, a spokeswoman for Zeldin, said with 17 months until the next

election, the congressman would be focus-ing his efforts on improving the lives of the middle class and not engaging in politics.

“Congressman Zeldin has been work-ing across party lines since day one,” she said in a statement. “He has been recog-nized as the top Freshman Republican likely to co-sponsor legislation with mem-bers of the opposite party. He has also broke from party lines on critical votes to protect working class residents of Long Is-land. While people make false accusations regarding the congressman, Lee Zeldin is working tirelessly for the residents of Long Island. These people can continue to throw mud and lies about the Congressman, but the residents of the First Congressman District are smarter than that.”

Calone is director of six privately held companies throughout the country and has helped organize the bipartisan Con-gressional Caucus on Innovation and En-trepreneurship in the U.S. House of Repre-sentatives, advocating federal policies that promote job creation through the develop-ment of startups and other small businesses.

In that role, he helped launch Startup Day Across America, an event to connect federal officials with early-stage companies in their region. He also founded the Long Island Emerging Technologies Fund, which provides funding to six early-stage compa-nies based on technology developed at Long Photo by Greg Catalano

On Saturday, May 30, Suffolk County Legislator Sarah Anker (D-Mount Si-nai) joined the Rocky Point Historical Society for its annual yard sale, which supports the organization’s Noah Hal-lock House — the oldest home currently standing in Rocky Point.

Home to seven generations of the Hallock family, the house is presently maintained by the Rocky Point Histori-cal Society and serves as a museum for visitors to view clothing, farming tools, artifacts from the Hallock family and

discover the historical value of Rocky Point.

“The Hallock House is a rare piece of history that has maintained its origi-nal character and charm,” Anker said. “Through the Rocky Point Historical Society’s tireless efforts, the home has provided an opportunity for our com-munity to learn about our local history.”

Rocky Point Middle School students and staff members received a powerful message about the importance of kind-ness and compassion when the Rachel’s Challenge program visited the building.

During the event, presenter Larry Scott spoke about the life and legacy of his niece — Rachel Scott, the first stu-dent-victim of the infamous 1999 Colum-bine High School tragedy. The program focused on Rachel’s acts of kindness and the contents of her diaries. Students viewed a video about Rachel’s life and the interwoven message designed to pro-

voke positive change in the way others are treated. After the assembly, the students were encouraged to “take the challenge” and commit to leading a life rooted in kindness and compassion. They docu-mented this pledge on a large poster, to be displayed in the school.

Members of the school’s Friends of Ra-chel club also participated in a separate training program. These students will be responsible for leading the charge, set-ting an example for their peers and as-sisting to coordinate various community service projects.

Mount Sinai falls to Clarke in LIC Clarke . . . . . . . . .11Mount Sinai . . . . 4

By Bill landon

Mount Sinai scored three un-answered runs to lead 3-2 by the fifth inning, but a one-run lead wouldn’t be nearly enough as Clarke exploded in the final two innings under the Friday night lights at St. Joseph’s college, scoring nine more runs to claim the Long Island Championship Class A softball title, 11-4.

“This is the best softball team Mount Sinai has ever had,” Mount Sinai head coach Tom Tilton said. “They won the con-ference, they won the league and they won the county cham-pionship — something that has never been done before.”

The Clarke bats cracked first as the team scored two runs in the opening inning, but the Mustangs answered back in the bottom of the second, after senior Emily Solomos drew a walk and senior Julia Gallo hit a single up the middle to rep-resent the tying run. With two outs, senior Jamie Parente’s bat spoke next, with a long shot to left center field for a stand up double, to bring home Solomos. With runners on second and third, Clarke miscued and on

a wild pitch, Gallo crossed the plate to tie the game, 2-2.

Mount Sinai senior Jessica Parente led off in the bottom of the third with a single, and with a healthy lead off the bag, she drew a pick-off attempt from the mound. With an overthrow to first, she advanced to second, and ran over to third on another passed ball at the plate, but the Mustangs’ first lead of the game would have to wait, as Parente was left stranded.

With one out in the top of the fifth inning, and runners at first and third, Clarke attempted a squeeze play, but Mount Sinai didn’t fall for the stolen-base attempt, and cleanly picked off both of the runners to retire the side.

Mount Sinai senior pitcher Cassandra Wilson smacked a lead-off single to start the bot-tom of the fifth inning. She put herself into scoring posi-tion by stealing second, and freshman Love Drumgole, at the plate with one out, ripped one deep down the right side-line to drive in Wilson and edge ahead, 3-2, for the team’s first lead of the game.

Sophomore Angela Bukofsky answered next when she smacked

a double to right center field, but Clarke pitched its way out of the inning to stop the rally.

Mount Sinai’s lead was short-lived, and in the top of the sixth, Clarke ripped a two-run home run 220 feet over the center field fence to retake the lead. After a double, Clarke loaded the bases and plated two more runners by the end of the inning, to jump out to a 6-3 advantage.

Mount Sinai went scoreless in the bottom of the sixth, and took to the field for the final inning.

The team’s opponent put together a five- run rally in that inning, to jump out to a large 11-3 advantage, and give Mount Sinai a deficit that was too

difficult to overcome.Mount Sinai managed one

last run, when Bukofsky drove in Drumgole to trail 11-4, but it was too little too late.

“The senior leadership has been fantastic all year long and I’m proud of them,” Tilton said of the girls who will be leaving in the fall. “We didn’t have our best game tonight, but we were right there with them through five innings. They gave it their best shot, and that’s all you can ask for.”

Photos by Bill Landon Clockwise from top left, Jessica Parente throws the runner out at first; Emily Solomos makes contact with the ball; Cassandra Wilson tosses a pitch; and love drumgole beats out the runner at first for the out.

‘They won the conference, they won the league and they won the county championship; something that has never been done before.’

“Right now our biggest obstacle is get-ting them made fast enough,” Bonventre said. Bonventre and Texeira launched the company Shore Creations in Novem-ber, though RampShot is their only game so far. Their trajectory as a company is hardly the norm.

Within the first two months of the company’s launch, the duo applied to be recognized by the National Sport-ing Goods Association as one of its top 10 new products. By April, they were on a plane to Austin, Texas, to attend an NSGA conference and be recognized as one of the top products. In addition, the game was featured on A&E Network’s “Project StartUp.”

“They’re a great partner for the sports industry,” Katie Nemec, director of mar-keting for the NSGA said in an email of Bonventre and Texeira.

“Everyday I wake up I just can’t be-lieve what’s happening,” Bonventre said about the success his company has ex-perienced despite being in its infancy. “We’re still at the beginning so for us this is really exciting now. But to think about the potential for the future is sometimes overwhelming.”

Bonventre estimates that he and Tex-eira have invested somewhere in the neighborhood of $100,000. Both said they dedicate between 30 and 40 hours a week to RampShot, on top of their nor-mal work schedules and family duties.

Texeira remembers the moment when he decided it was time to fully commit to producing and selling RampShot. The partners received a phone call one eve-ning from their attorney who informed them that their idea was 100 percent original and would not infringe on any existing patents. Texeira said that for him there was no looking back after that.

“It’s been fun for me personally,” Tim Goddeau, operations manager of Micelli Chocolate Mold Co., said in an email. Goddeau’s company manufac-tures the games.

“Anytime you have people who never been in the manufacturing business you get to show them how difficult it can be to make a product.”

Bonventre and Texeira are not alone. Rather than cut short this interview, Bonventre’s wife Jackie and son Tyler rose to the occasion when a UPS truck pulled up to their house to pick up an or-der of 16 games.

“It’s my exercise,” Jackie Bonventre said laughing.

Tyler was somehow able to hoist three of the boxes up at a time and haul them out to the truck, despite the fact that one box seemed to be about half of his size.

“Once I saw the product I knew that he had something so I was supportive of it,” Josh Bonventre said. “Whatever he had to do I was in.”

Texeira fondly remembered when he decided to go to his parents and tell them about their idea.

“My dad was a Rocky Point mu-sic teacher for 35 years,” Texeira said. “He wasn’t someone who took a lot of risks. They loved the idea that it was a game and they trusted my business background.”

Bonventre estimates more than a thousand games have been sold in the past few months.

“The other day I come home and there’s a bunch of new orders that came in while I was at work,” he said. “They were from basically every corner of the country.”

The game is currently sold in sport-ing goods stores in the tri-state area, the Midwest, New England and online. Soon a few Bed Bath & Beyond locations on Long Island will carry RampShot.

“We just had somebody the other day on Facebook, somebody we don’t know posted to our wall and they have a pic-ture of our game at the beach,” Bonven-tre said. “She writes ‘probably the best game to play in the sand. Probably the best game ever.’”

Bonventre stopped short of declar-ing RampShot and Shore Creations as his sole source of income in the future. Standing in his garage — turned small business headquarters — Bonventre daydreamed about the future again for a moment.

“Two years from now, three years from now, four years from now are we going to be selling 10,000 at a shot?” he pondered. “We obviously won’t be able to do it here.”

Island’s research institutions.Calone said his hands-on experience helping Long Is-

land businesses thrive was a driving force behind his deci-sion to challenge Zeldin, and he hoped to apply his experi-ence working to keep his hometown attractive, and retain residents living there.

“What I want to bring is someone who helped start and grow businesses across Long Island,” he said. “This area was a great place to grow up and a lot of my classmates have al-ready left and don’t come back. We need to be a leader in the economy of New York and worldwide.”

Since 2008, Calone has worked as chairman of the Suf-folk County Planning Commission. He also helped initi-ate the county’s first comprehensive plan effort in nearly 40 years.

On the local level, Calone has already garnered support from various political leaders and community activists. His campaign committee is headed by Virginia Capon, president of the Three Village Democratic Club, and he has received early support from Tony Parlatore, chair of the Brookhaven Town Democratic Committee.

“Dave Calone has never run for office before, but he is a lifelong supporter of Democratic values,” Parlatore said. “His father was an engineer and local chamber of com-merce leader and his mother was an elementary school teacher here in our community. He is well respected in our region for his work to cut government red tape and enact policies that support job growth. He also has been a leader in protecting Suffolk County’s natural environment by fighting to protect our waters and has been nationally recognized for creating policies that promote renewable energy usage across Long Island.”

As a federal prosecutor in the U.S. Department of Jus-tice Honors Program, Calone worked on prosecuting cas-es involving international economic crime and terrorism — efforts for which he was named a recipient of the 2003 Attorney General’s Award.

Calone is an honors graduate of Princeton University and Harvard Law School. He lives with his wife Kate, a Presbyterian minister, and their three children.

take action to protect its most precious and vul-nerable residents,” she said. “Hopefully, this ac-tion will create a tipping point for New York State to follow suit. Otherwise, more localities will step up and follow Suffolk’s lead.”

Marcia Bystryn, president of the New York League of Conservation Voters, has also been at the forefront of the statewide push to limit the kinds of toxins children could be exposed to through their toys. While the state still waits for its own comprehensive response to toxic toy leg-islation, Bystryn applauded Suffolk for taking the lead.

“Toxic chemicals have no place in children’s toys, and they should not be on store shelves for sale,” Bystryn said. “I applaud bill sponsor Kara Hahn and the Suffolk County Legislature for sending a clear message to parents that they de-serve the right to know what dangers are lurking in the products they bring home.”

Hannah Van Middelem made five stops in goal, and seniors Mary Ellen Carron, also a co-captain, and Morgan McGrath aided a poised defense that didn’t allow an oppo-nent to reach double figures in scoring this season. Mitchell, Pirreca and Van Mid-delem were named to the All-Tournament team, and senior Ashley Seiter earned the sportsmanship award.

The Mustangs finished the season with a 20-1 overall record and Division II mark of 13-0. Mount Sinai now ranks No. 1 in the East regional ratings according to LaxPower, and is also ranked No. 3 in the country.

Mount Sinai’s senior co-captains Kasey Mitchell and Sydney Pirreca con-tinued to lead the way for the Mustangs as they traveled upstate to Cortland last weekend and beat out both of their op-ponents to claim the school’s second state Class C lacrosse championship in three seasons.

On Friday morning, the girls’ lacrosse team breezed through its game against reigning champion Skaneateles, scoring eight goals in the first half and five in the second for a 13-7 victory and a place in the final.

Mitchell, a midfielder, scored five goals and was named the MVP of the game, while freshman attack Meaghan Tyr-rell tacked on two goals and two assists, and Pirreca, also a midfielder, added two goals. The other goal scorers were junior Caroline Hoeg with two and, with one apiece, freshman Camryn Harloff and senior Jessica DeMeo.

On Saturday, the Mustangs took on Honeoye Falls-Lima in the final and had another strong start, scoring six goals in the first half en route to an 8-5 win.

Just two minutes into the game, Pir-reca scored first with a shot into the top-right corner and earned herself a hat trick by scoring the next two goals. She was named MVP of the game.

Mitchell followed by tallying the next three goals for her team, to end the scoring for the first half.

Mitchell tacked on another goal in the second half, and Tyrrell rounded out the scoring with a goal of her own. Sophomore

File photo by Greg Catalano One letter writer responds to a previous letter to the editor regarding Memorial Day Parade attendance.

Memorial responseTO ThE EDITOR:

I was surprised by Bob Man-del’s letter citing small turnout for the Memorial Day parade in the June 4 edition.

I too am a long time resident for 35 years. I too served in the Army for two years.

I share Mr. Mandel’s view of the importance of the parade, and I attend happily each year. My surprise comes from his statement that “the crowds along the parade route just weren’t there.”

From my usual viewing spot at the corner of Gnarled hollow Road, it seemed to me

that there was the usual robust and enthusiastic turnout. I was particularly pleased by the large number of young families with children.

I write this letter because Mr. Mandel asked for responses to his letter.

Slower takeoff for drone lawsAs a community news-

paper, we find ourselves tossing around the phrase “NIMBY” — standing for “not in my backyard” — from time to time. But it’s usually more of an expres-sion, and a negative one, than a literal translation of residents resisting some-thing from going into their actual backyards.

But in the case of drones, NIMBY could not be taken more literally.

Call them drones, call them unmanned aircraft systems — either way, the public perception of these flying devices is still devel-oping as they buzz around the skies.

huntington Town at-tempted this week to ground concerns over these drones

when it introduced a reso-lution that would regulate their use for the betterment of public health, privacy and safety “so that operation of same is respectful of com-munity standards [and] the concerns of residents, as well as protect property and privacy rights,” the resolu-tion said.

huntington wasn’t alone in its efforts to come out a step ahead of drone regula-tion, either. U.S. Sen. Chuck Schumer and several other elected leaders have been banging the drone drum for months now, calling on the Federal Aviation Adminis-tration to require drones to fly below 500 feet and limit where they can fly.

While we understand the legislative urge to keep an

eye on the sky for the sake of public privacy and safety, we hope our public leaders don’t turn the drone debate into a droning drain on resources.

There are several things to consider when it comes to drawing the legislative line for drones. At what point would new laws encroach upon our personal free-doms? Whose job is it to regulate them? Does the regulator depend on how high the drone flies or what jurisdiction is underneath it? Should regulations vary based upon the type of drone?

Moving forward, our local municipalities should not jump the gun. Officials should properly investigate all the nuts and bolts of the

drone industry and be care-ful when determining where governments should step in.

Flying a drone is not like flying a kite, and we, like many of our neighbors, are

concerned about personal privacy and public safety. All we ask is that our elected officials consider the whole subject carefully before ink-ing laws.

Photo from Morguefile.comSome drones can take high-resolution photos and video.

The perennial trauma of public speaking

We talk constantly. We speak to our spouses when we wake up, to

our children when we try to get them up, to our friends on the way to work, to the person pre-paring our morning bagel, and on and on. Most of that speech is automatic.

“Hey, how are you doing?”“Great, you?”

Happy Birthday to my smart best friend

D. None of the aboveby DaNiel DuNaief

may be purchased online from www.tbrnewsmedia.com/ebooks.

“Can’t complain. I mean, I could complain but who’d listen?”

When we’re not talking, we often hear an internal dialogue.

“Why didn’t you demand a raise?”

“Next time, next time.”“You’re always saying that.

This is next time.”“Hey, stop yelling at me!”Words are as natural most

of the time as the steps we take on the way to or from the car, down the block, or up the stairs. We don’t think, “Left, right, left, right.” Wait, no, isn’t it, “Right, left, left, right, right?”

And yet, something happens to the natural flow of words when we have to give a speech. It’s not the same for everyone. I suspect many politicians are so comfortable giving speeches that they just need to know where the camera is to share their eloquence.

That’s not exactly the word I’d use to describe the times I’ve had to speak in front of large, or

even medium-sized groups. I’ve spoken out in meetings many times about stories, offering my opinion or awareness of the his-tory of an evolving story to a group of editors.

I’m fine in those situations. It’s when I get up in front of a group of people, many of whom I don’t know, to share some words on a subject that the dis-comfort begins.

I lick my lips regularly before I begin, as the saliva that pours forth from my mouth so readily at other times has decided that this moment is the ideal time to take a vacation.

My breathing becomes shal-low and quick. “I, uh, would, uh, like to, uh, say a few words.”

Speeches are like walking on the bottom of the ocean, wear-ing heavy boots and breath-ing through a small tube. Sud-denly, the words become like unknown and unseen obstacles, blocking the path to commu-nicating something charming,

witty, insightful and cohesive.“Uh, hi, I’m, uh, uh, Dan,

right, Dan.”Why do those public words

become so unfamiliar and un-comfortable? Is it because we can’t correct them? Do we feel as if we need to perform the words instead of just sharing what’s percolating in our minds at the time?

In the middle of a speech, we can’t say, “Where was I? Oh, yes, that’s it. I could really use a tuna sandwich right now.”

I recently gave a short speech in front of a group celebrating my brother’s birthday. I didn’t know many of the people in the room and even though it was a receptive audience, I started to feel the typical nerves building up in those last few moments.

The speech went fine, or so people have assured me. But then, of course, the voices in my head shared their customary public-speech criticism.

I became like all those pundits

who second guess every word and decision after an election or after the big game. “You know,” I thought to myself, “you should have started with this joke. That would have been funnier.”

“Oh yeah?” I wanted to bark back at that self-critical voice. “Where were you 10 minutes ago?”

“I was here, you just couldn’t hear me because too many other voices were up here, shouting into your ear not to mess up.”

Yet it always seems to turn out all right. Until the next time.

I started to feel the typical nerves

building up.

Teddy will be 10 years old this week. Who is Teddy? That’s an interesting ques-

tion that we have frequently debated over the years. Osten-sibly Teddy is a dog, a gorgeous golden retriever, on the large and hairy side. But we who live with him know differently. While he masquerades as a dog, trotting around the house drinking and eating from his dog bowls and otherwise sleeping and greeting, we know he is much too wise to be a dog. I’ve not been a believer

Teddy, the golden retriever, bears his

age with grace.

in reincarnation particularly, but if there is such a process, Teddy is the real deal.

We’ve speculated on which of our ancestors he might be, and we’ve not come up with a certain identity. But there is no question regarding his in-telligence. For example, when we are sitting in the living room and talking, he will curl up in the center of the room and join the conversation. Re-ally. To the extent that he is able, he communicates with throaty and moaning sounds up and down the human scale. When he wants to go out, he will come over to where I am reading and try to look me in the eye. If I refuse to meet his gaze, he will plop his head across the newspaper or book I am holding, forcing me to ac-knowledge his presence. When I do, he will jerk his head in the direction of the front door repeatedly until I get up to get the leash. Then he will bound toward the door while utter-ing a series of falsetto sounds clearly expressing his joy.

OK, so that’s not so brilliant. Every dog knows how to com-municate its biological needs to its walker. But consider this. It’s raining, dark and late. I’m stand-ing in front of him, leash in hand, asking encouragingly, “Want to go out?” No response. “Want to go out?” I ask again. Unmov-ing, he will shake his head from side to side. He has mastered the body language for “no.” He can also spell. If the time is right for his next outing and I interrupt the conversation with my family by asking if anyone wants to take him o-u-t, he will jump up and rush toward the door with the ritual histrionics.

Goldens do have the most expressive brown eyes. Some-times, when I have something on my mind and no one else is around to overhear my mono-logue, I will talk to Teddy and he will fix his limpid eyes on me all the while. Now he may just be thinking, “What on earth is she carrying on about?” hoping that, if he stays still long enough, in the end I will give him a dog cookie. But that’s the wonderful

thing about dogs: They never seem to have pejorative thought about the people who care for them. One of their greatest at-tributes is that they can’t repeat what you tell them. They can only listen sympathetically. We should all be so smart.

Teddy loves broccoli and kale, especially when prepared with some garlic. He also eats yellow and red peppers, spin-ach, mushrooms and onions, all with gusto. He does not eat tomatoes nor bananas.

Teddy bears his age with grace. In human years, he is in his 70s, and his hips give testimony. He has some dis-tinguished white hairs among the gold around his muzzle, and he definitely likes to sleep a little later in the mornings. He has developed an impres-sive snore. Our daily walks are a stately event. No longer do I have to keep him on the leash for fear he will dash off to the nearby beach or visit his friends in the adjoining yards. He is content to walk at a moderate pace beside me

— most of the time. When a rabbit crosses our path, he will look at it almost quizzically, as if wondering why he used to get all steamed up chasing a bunny. A cat? Not so much. He will still go off in pursuit of one — for at least 50 feet — and then return to my side looking mildly embarrassed.

He needn’t be because one of his endearing traits is his play-fulness. I never scold him for be-ing a dog, even a dog in disguise. And I appreciate that, even if he is past retirement age, he still works at his job. He knows that his job is to guard the house, and if anyone should drive up in a car he doesn’t recognize, he will let loose with a series of fe-rocious baritone barks. That is, if he hasn’t slipped downstairs for a civilized afternoon nap. Happy Birthday, Teddy.
