About me:
I'm a fat athlete, a singer with no soft palate, a father with no family. I write music for a band I'm not in. I own a business without an office. I give up on easy things and never quit on the impossible...
But my life rocks.
Who I'd like to meet: Today:
Most I can think of are white-collar types: Bob Barr, Warren Buffett, Ron Paul, Mitt Romney. I can't imagine sitting down with most of today's shallow professional athletes (except Oscar Pistorius) and assembly line musicians. Every other interesting person is dead.
From the past:
Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt, the real Vince Gambill, Simon Bolivar, John Muir, William Shakespeare, Roald Amundsen, Steve Irwin (the guy's passion for his life and work were inspiring)
Here at Make Me A MOM (www.makemeamom.net ) we try and help out as many people as we can. If you don't have anything to donate, just donate a moment of your time and ask your friends to join and spread the word. This may help you or someone close to you who is trying to have a baby.

WHEREAS, today, in 2008, the states are demonstrably treated as agents of the federal government; and WHEREAS, many federal mandates are directly in violation of the Tenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States; and WHEREAS, the United States Supreme Court has ruled in New York v.

People are often unreasonable, illogical, and self-centered; Forgive them anyway. If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives; Be kind anyway. If you are successful you will win some false friends and true enemies; Succeed anyway. If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you; Be honest and frank anyway. What you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight; Build anyway. If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous; Be happy anyway. The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow; Do good anyway. Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough; Give the world the best you've got anyway You see, in the final analysis, it is between you and God; It was never between you and them anyway.
