Fencing might be the best sport in terms of success at St. John's in the past decade. I for one have never witnessed a match though.

The phrase perfect storm refers to the a simultaneous occurrence of events which, taken individually, would be far less powerful than the result of their chance combination. Such occurrences are, by their very nature, rare, and so even a slight change in any one event contributing to a ‘perfect storm’ would be sufficient to lessen the overall power of the final event.

I went to school with Keeth. He's a great guy and I'm glad he is feeling better and did well over in China.
