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

Are You Ready For Some FOOTBALL!?!

.
College Football.

I'm just a leeeeetle bit excited about this:

And he's coming to OUR HOUSE this fall.

"We ready!!"

My smile is spreading ear to ear.

PS - - - - of COURSE by "our house" I mean Camp Randall Stadium and NOT my personal residence. Although, if he'd come to my personal residence I'd most CERTAINLY invite him.

Sandy said...: I didn't read the post before this one about Russell Wilson, so I thought, WHAT? A TarHeel coming to WIS. HMM, then I scrolled down and saw Russell's picture....Now of all the teams in NC, I like the Wolfpack.
But if the truth be known, I am a Marshall fan, then a Badger fan...AND definitely not an OSU fan....BOO.....
And I am so excited that the USC-Gamecocks took the college world series back to back.....YEAH!! Basketball: WVU and then WIS. And lastly, a die hard PACKER FAN and a die hard CUBS fan.....
