Quotes of Note

You're born a male but you have to CHOOSE to be a man" - Herm Edwards

"I mourn the loss of thousands of precious lives, but I will not rejoice in the death of one, not even an enemy. Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that" - Unknown

"They err who think Santa Clause comes down through the chimney; he really enters through the heart." - Mrs. Paul M. Ell

"Thankfully, our true roots are in heritage and not things. I just need to keep reminding myself that things are only reminders of heritage." - Keetha Broyles, June 21, 2010

"Tears lubricate the soul." - from "Finding Buck McHenry"

"Somehow you must come to understand that God is love, that love is the proof of God, and forgiveness is the proof of love." - The Priest in "Levi's Will" by W. Dale Cramer

"The truth about a man is in what he does, not what he says." - W. Dale Cramer in "Levi's Will"

"Fairy Tales are more than true; not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten." - G. K. Chesterton

It is My Goal To Make You Snort

And spit.

(photo from Life Archives, 9/01/65)

(Photo from marriottworldcenter.com)

In the not too distant past someone told me my comment on her blog "made me spit my coffee across the room."

And in an e-mail today another bloggy friend told me, "just between us girls, sometimes your blog posts make me 'snort.'"

Oh this truly is music to my ears. It is my blog-time goal to make you all "spit" and "snort".

Thank you for coming. (Isn't it amazing that you do!?!)

Thank you for commenting. (Lifeblood of any blog!!!)

Thank you for following. (I am honored indeed.)

And I am blessed beyond measure if you spit and snort a little too. :-)

Keepie
