The one adjective used to describe my entire hockey career. I prefer to call it hard work, at least I did until my game went to complete crap. I haven’t scored in eight games and the team owner is talking about trading me. I’ve never believed in superstitions. Never needed one. I suppose I was “lucky” in that way. But now the best way to refer to me is desperate. I’d wear the same socks for an entire year just to be the high-scoring center I used to be. Imagine my surprise when after spending New Year’s Eve with a woman, I score a hat trick in the next game—that’s three goals in one game for you non-hockey lovers. Now, I have to track her down and bribe her to do it again before every game. Get your mind out of the gutter, I’m not talking about it. I find her and when I get to know her better, I end up spending more time thinking about her than my game, but she’s made it clear she wants no part of me. She’s going to learn that I didn’t become a professional hockey player without having to fight for what I want.

Download or read book Thirteen is My Lucky Number written by Bill C. Biega. This book was released on 1996-01-01. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THIRTEEN IS MY LUCKY NUMBER is a vividly detailed memoir of a native Pole who was in high school when the Nazis invaded his country. Author Biega worked with the underground to harass the Germans, an activity that culminated in a 63-day uprising against the Nazi occupiers in 1944. It ultimately was crushed because the Soviets refused to help. He was wounded in a skirmish, & sent to a POW camp in eastern Germany. After the war ended, he walked three days to freedom. His language skills allowed him to work as a translator for the Americans & a liaison officer with the Polish army in exile in London. For four years he lived with his wartime bride through the scarcity of postwar London, working & waiting for a precious immigration visa to the United States. When it came, Biega joyfully became a part of a stream of immigrants that worked very hard to achieve success. The second part of this book is a portrait of a growing family in 1950s America, remembering their Polish roots but profoundly grateful for their American opportunity. It's a fascinating look at an aspect of World War II few Americans are familiar with, & a study of how hard work, optimism & luck can bring great rewards. To order Syrena Press, P.O.
