Wrestle Mania: Samuel Carries on the Tradition
http://jontrav.blogspot.com/2008/12/samuel-carries-on-tradition.html
Saturday, December 13, 2008. Samuel Carries on the Tradition. Samuel wrestled in his first wrestling match today. He did great and scored 15 points. Unfortunately, his opponent scored 18 points. Samuel's uncles and I started a Traverso traditon of crawling off the wrestling mat after a match (we were too out of shape and tired to walk). Samuel must have a different genetic make-up because after the match, he jumped up and was ready for a fourth period. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Finds itself in the same predicament as two of its leading characters: It isn't quite sure where to go. Like Joy (voiced by Amy Poehler) and Sadness (Lois Smith, the movie's standout), Inside Out.
