Champion of Courage

" True heroism is remarkably sober, very undramatic. It is not the urge to surpass all at whatever cost, but the urge to serve others at whatever cost."

“If I were to say, ''God, why me?'' about the bad things, then I should have said, ''God, why me?'' about the good things that happened in my life.”

"You are never really playing an opponent. You are playing yourself, your own highest standards, and when you reach your limits, that is real joy."

Arthur Ashe

How happy is the blameless vestal's lot!
The world forgetting, by the world forgot.
Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind!
Each pray'r accepted, and each wish resign'd;
~A portion ofEloisa to Abelard by Alexander Pope

Below are a few funny comments that I saw on FB last night...

"Michigan St. needs a bailout..."

"damn how many records are we gonna break tonight?"

"Kongrats to da Carolina! We got this in the bag! skrew the "hills" yall should be watchin the real HEELS!"

"Our Father, who art in Chapel Hill, hallowed be thy game. Thy tourney come, thy championship be won, in Detroit as it is in the Dean Dome. Give us this day our deserved victories. And forgive us our turnovers, as we forgive those Spartans who cheer against us. And lead us not into defeat, but deliver us from the upset. For N.C. is the basketball kingdom, and the tradition, and the glory, forever and ever,amen!"

"THIS AIN'T SPAAAAAAAAAAAAAARTAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!"

The Fallen and Forgotten Champion

I could feel his muscle tissues collapse under my force. It's ludicrous these mortals even attempt to enter my realm.

Mike Tyson's downfall ≠ Buster Douglas, Evander Holyfield, Lennox Lewis, or Don King but Robin Givens...

1 year ago today...

Self Checkout

Back in my college days, I would scan organic fruits and vegetables as non-organic pesticides, insecticides and herbicides filled fruits and vegetables b/c it was cheaper...

Its not that I don't do it now b/c I know that it is unethical but b/c the grocery store that I go to doesn't have self-checkout...

and yes I definitely saved a lot of dinero doing it..
