Life is full of beauty. Notice it. Notice the bumble bee, the small child, and the smiling faces. Smell the rain, and feel the wind. Live your life to the fullest potential, and fight for your dreams.

A local United Way office realized that the organization had never received a donation from the town's most successful lawyer. The person in charge of contributions called him to persuade him to contribute. "Our research shows that out of a yearly income of at least $500,000, you did not give a penny to charity. Wouldn't you like to give back to the community in some way?" The lawyer mulled this over for a moment and replied, "First, did your research also show that my mother is dying after a long illness, and has medical bills that are several times her annual income?" Embarrassed, the United Way rep mumbled, "Um, no." The lawyer interrupts, "Or that my brother, a disabled veteran, is blind and confined to a wheelchair?" The stricken United Way rep began to stammer out an apology, but was interrupted again. "Or that my sister's husband died in a traffic accident," the lawyer's voice rising in indignation, "leaving her penniless with three children?!" The humiliated United Way rep, completely beaten, said simply, "I had no idea." On a roll, the lawyer cut him off once again, "So if I don't give any money to them, why should I give any to you?"

Good morning everyboomie.
It's the weekend/part III and at least the symbolic end to Summer.
I refuse to go in to work today.
Our 40% rain chances hasn't panned out yet. It's sunny and 90 degrees right now. It's still supposed to be low 80s on Monday.
One can only hope. Maybe we'll get some heavy rain overnight, and I can fly out to the sod farm and check it out in the morning.
This morning when I got up I weighed 185.4lbs. 185lb was my goal so I have shed 15 pounds since July 21st.
I celebrated with a pizza for lunch. Mmmm Mmmmm Mmmm better than sex!
I didn't say that out loud did I?
Have a happy day everyone.
