I eat grapes just about every day, usually red, but this week I’m eating the black grapes since they were on sale.
I’m itching for a new camera, but there’s absolutely zero in the budget for that.
My first car was a Pontiac Grand Am.
My first date was with a girl named April and I took her to the movies and Jack in the Box.
I have a new coworker whose last job was for MTV in NYC.
I caught the Nightline story of the Medal of Honor that was awarded, well, will be awarded to a living soldier. Amazing story, and it’s amazing that more living soldiers aren’t awarded that medal, most are awarded posthumously.
For my fellow fans of the television series of Friday Night Lights, a Kyle Chandler interview. Clear Eyes, Full Hearts, Can’t Lose!
I was happy for the Chiefs' fans. They packed a stadium in poring rain and cheered wildly for every Chiefs play. If you have time, read a brief history of the Medal of Honor. At one time they were awarded so carelessly that an entire regiment was awarded the Medal of Honor by mistake. In the early 1900's a review was done and the government re-claimed a large number of them because they were deemed to have been improperly awarded. Many of the stories are tragic. The medal was taken away from the Indian scouts who captured Geronimo [I believe because they were not actual soldiers…another case of the White Man going back on his word] They also took away the Medal of Honor from the only woman to win it. She wore it all the time and refused to surrender it. I saw a clip of Oprah yesterday telling her audience they were all going to Australia with Travolta and that he has a commercial airline pilot's license. I would NOT fly anywhere on an airliner with a pilot who did it part-time.
We Kansas Citians are expecting big things out of the Chiefs as well. I mean, seriously…we have no where to go but up!
