Couple folks asked me about my Tom-Capistrano reference yesterday and I apologize for the “inside” joke.
While at Ryken High School several years ago, my buddy Tom McCoy won several speech contests with a speech that I remember nothing about other than the catchphrase he repeated throughout: “And on March 19th, the swallows return to San Juan Capistrano.” To this day, every time I hear something about those swallows at Capistrano, I think of Tom giving that speech in Brother Oswin’s class.
