Doug

"My favorite book is The Hungry Fox and the Foxy Duck by Kathleen Leverich. I like the duck and the fox because the fox wants to eat the duck, but the duck already knows about it. The duck lies to the fox because she does not want to be French toast. This is a good book. I really liked it." -- Sora Rivka Goliger Norbel Elementary "My favorite book is Doug Cheats by Linda Garvey, Danny Campbell and Kimberly Campbell. I like this book because Doug has a big history test coming and every time he starts studying he has to do something or he falls asleep.

LAURIE TICE AND DOUG WAGERMANIn October 1997, just a month after Laurie Tice and Doug Wagerman started dating, Doug was in a terrible car accident. He spent eight days at the Maryland Shock Trauma Center with multiple injuries. Rehabilitation kept the Baltimore City firefighter off work for five months.It was not an auspicious beginning for a relationship that had already offered its share of baggage, the couple say.Laurie and Doug first became acquainted in August 1996 when they were among the participants on a large scuba-diving trip to the Caribbean, sponsored by an area dive shop.

The other night we were watching a movie on TV. During one of the commercial breaks - which are generally long enough to drive to Dairy Queen for a sundae and get back before the show starts again - Doug went to make some popcorn. I approve of popcorn as "food" on principle. It's delicious right out of the kernel - if you like Styrofoam packing peanuts - and it has fiber which, as the fiber-supplement industry is constantly reminding us, is good for us. Personally, I think they're just trying to get rid of all those extra Styrofoam packing peanuts.

Each week Samala and Douglas Blake are taking small steps toward independence.They are working on a budget and thinking about moving out of Doug's father's home and into their own apartment by Christmas. Doug, 21, has a good job. And Sam, 18, has given birth to their baby girl, Darion."A year ago, I never thought I'd be here," Doug said as he glanced proudly at his wife and child. "I thought I would be a single guy, going out to go-gos and acting crazy. But I have changed into something very important: a husband and a father."

At the start, Amanda Borden's parents sat two seats away from each other, separated by an aunt and uncle. After the vault, the family played musical chairs. Patty and Doug Borden needed to be next to each other. You know, for moral support."Just one event," Doug advised Patty, but the truth was, that one event probably shattered Amanda's Olympic dream. Later she would describe her poor landing as "a fluke." But for a gymnast on the bubble in these Olympic Trials, that's all it takes.She trained eight years for this, and by tomorrow it all might be gone.

When Doug and Annie Brown were forced to leave the Baltimore area they had grown to love to look for work, the couple ended up downhearted in Denver - so much so that they were willing to do anything to put Charm City spark back in their lives. "Let's have sex for 100 consecutive days," said Annie to Doug one night two years ago. "What the hell, let's do it," Doug replied. "There's nothing else going on." Eager to spice up their marriage of 14 years, the couple resorted to a personal, no-excuses course of Sex 101 (later tacking on an additional day)
