sentences.text: In the past, when I was four or five years old... My grandfather was a big boxing fan. He asked me to sit down and watch boxing.  I didn't really get it. I don't remember it well because I was too young but.... My father told me that I used to love boxing when I was growing up. I said "oh, I see," then I began watching the boxing on TV. As I watched, I thought to myself, "I wouldn't mind doing boxing in the future". I would work out and have great abdominal muscles on my stomach.  Wow--it would require a lot of time, though, ...so I dropped it.  One thing that hit me when I was watching TV... Last year, I watched a story about Muhammad Ali on CNN. It was a show about his life story. I was completely fascinated by it. After I watched that story, Muhammad Ali became my favorite boxer. His wife invited a reporter over their house. While they had dinner, the sports reporter collected more information about Muhammad Ail. His wife cooked and got things ready for dinner.  Then, they all sat down and talked. The reporter asked Muhammad Ali a simple question. Ali started to...  well, you know he has Parkinson's disease... He tends to shake sometimes and he had a hard time trying to focus on things. He started to really shake and the reporter got scared.  He wasn't sure how to approach that kind of situation. The reporter asked Ali's wife if he was alright. His wife said "well, sort of... sometimes he has bad dreams." Sometimes he  imagines he is still boxing in the ring, ...still taking punches.  Sometimes he will stand up and start swinging his fists. The reporter said, "Really, Muhammad Ali would stand up and start punching at people?" The wife said "Yes, I have seen him beating up one man for no reason" The reporter said, "really?" as he looked at Muhammad Ali. Ali was sitting, shaking; then he got up slowly and started punching the air. Ali walked toward the reporter, grabbed him by the collar, pulled him close, and shook his fist in the reporter's face. The reporter was really scared.  Muhammad Ali put him back in his seat, and said, "I am just teasing, don't worry!" He laughed and sat down.  I had goose bumps on my arms. I was not laughing, yes I know it was funny, but I got goose bumps on my arms. ...because Muhammad Ali has Parkinson's Disease... But he still, uh, he still is able to find humor in many things. He scared the reporter, his wife was great...wow. So, after that, I wish I could tell my grandfather that story. He died way back, when I was around 8 years old. I wish he and I could have watched it together.
