- Hey! It is Monday and tomorrow I will be 59. Go figure! I managed to fog my mirror again this morning so I

-
- Get up, get out and make somebody's day today, tomorrow, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Be special. Become The Exception.

- "Whatever you choose to be, be a good one."
