True enough. Time flies, I didn't realize he got a full season in before Covid. Sluka will have three or four seasons to top his career numbers but may never beat his per season numbers. Interesting that RP, Sr. had a brother named Walter who was a legendary coach at Somerville High. I wonder if these Perrys are from the same family or coaching tree? EJ Perry's father was his high school coach so sounds like the family is big into coaching...

Al may have coached, not sure, but 100% sure he was a referee; in at least one instance he was one of the zebras for a Somerville/CM Game (won on a last second jumper by Billy Raynor). Walter was an assistant clerk-magistrant in the Framingham district court, where I toiled several summers. Great guy. The Andover/Brown Perrys are not related. At least one of them coached basketball as well, believe at Algonquin among other places.

If memories of the regular articles about the Perry brothers that used to appear at Tech Tournament time are correct, the father of Ronnie, Al and Walter Americanized the name to Perry from a similar Portuguese name.
It was a great story line, legendary coach/brother facing the other legendary coach/brother.

www.fiolamaredc.com/This is an expensive restaurant in the Georgetown area of DC. The landing page is a help wanted ad. Similar help wanted for what I would argue is the best Spanish restaurant in DC. www.delmardc.com/I have no NSFW idea where all the chefs have gone. www.bls.gov/news.release/jolts.t01.htmHowever, the above table on job openings by region and sector gives a small clue. Teachers weren't unemployed during COVID. Schools were open, and classes taught virtually, hybrid, or in person. There are 2.5x more job openings in state and local education in July 2021 than there were in July 2020. Many teachers have apparently decided to choose another profession, or simply leave the workforce. An anecdotal point. The public schools in a wealthy suburb north of Atlanta have started the school year with some elementary grade classes having no permanent teacher. Where have the teachers of last year gone? Its easier to understand why Britain is currently short 100,000 truck drivers, which has led to major supply disruptions. Drivers from the EU who had worked in the UK pre-Brexit, have returned to their home countries. And visa restrictions limit their returning. So the sceptered isle is now in a pickle.

This post is probably in the wrong thread by accident, but highly informative as usual.
