I was googling myself, like any intelligent, arrogant journalist would and should, when I came accross these gems. Back in the day when I was the news...

Figure Skating Competition Should Be Fierce at Empire State Winter Games

Followed up by:

Kelly Ryan From Troy Wins Gold in First Empire State Games Try In Singles Figure Skating; Three Other Figure Skaters Repeat as Medalists, Only In Tougher Competition

I am quoted in the second one-- The 15-year old Bloustein won last year's intermediate gold. "I'd like to
make it to Nationals next year and maybe someday the Olympics but I'll take it
one step at a time," said Bloustein.

I remember being interviewed and saying exactly that. I'd just come off the ice from the skate of a lifetime, knowing full well that I had the gold medal in the bag. What an arrogant little shit!

Well, something like 11 years later, and no Olympic Medal to show for it, I suppose I got what was coming to me. Those were the glory days...sigh!
