Quote of the Century:From "True Blood" LaFayette to Jessica:
LaFayette: And if you keep it 100 and honest, you know he is not the man for you...
Jessica: ...Because he is the man for you?
LaFayette: If he is, what is so f-ing unimaginable about that...Red! Huh? Everyone else in this f-ing town is falling in love, getting engaged and having babies. Has it ever occurred to you that Lafayette, that Queen, that make ALL you white heterosexuals laugh and feel good about yourselves, has it f-ing ever occurred to you that maybe I want a piece of happiness too? No....

When I read the book, the biography famous,And is this then (said I) what the author calls a man's life?And so will some one when I am dead and gone write my life?(As if any man really knew aught of my life,Why even I myself I often think know little or nothing of my real life,Only a few hints, a few diffused faint clews and indirectionsI seek for my own use to trace out here.)" When I Read the Book-Walt Whitman
"Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown outyour own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition." - Steve Jobs

Some people have asked me why I would go back and teach Walker HS Band's Color Guard when I had "been there, done that" 35 years ago...here's my answer and I sincerely mean it: A person should give back to the community that helped him/her succeed. I was a country boy from Cordova, a coal mining town with a population of 3000.
BARACK KNOWS THE AMERICAN DREAM BECAUSE HE’S LIVED IT. AND HE WANTS EVERYONE IN THIS COUNTRY TO HAVE THAT SAME OPPORTUNITY, NO MATTER WHO WE ARE, OR WHERE WE’RE FROM, OR WHAT WE LOOK LIKE, OR WHO WE LOVE. AND HE BELIEVES THAT WHEN YOU’VE WORKED HARD, AND DONE WELL, AND WALKED THROUGH THAT DOORWAY OF OPPORTUNITY, YOU DO NOT SLAM IT SHUT BEHIND YOU. YOU REACH BACK, AND YOU GIVE OTHER FOLKS THE SAME CHANCES THAT HELPED YOU SUCCEED."--Michelle Obama
