• “A coach is someone who can give correction without causing resentment.”
• “Do not let what you cannot do interfere with what you can do.”
• “Don’t measure yourself by what you have accomplished, but by what you should have accomplished with your ability.”
• “Failure is not fatal, but failure to change might be.”
• “I’d rather have a lot of talent and a little experience than a lot of experience and a little talent.”
• “If you’re not making mistakes, then you’re not doing anything.”
• “I’m positive that a doer makes mistakes.”
• “It’s the little details that are vital. Little things make big things happen.”
• “It’s what you learn after you know it all that counts.”
• “Never mistake activity for achievement.”
• “Talent is God given. Be humble. Fame is man-given. Be grateful. Conceit is self-given. Be careful.”
• “The main ingredient of stardom is the rest of the team.”

Forty one! Forty one! Forty one!

In a stunning upset, Massachusetts now has a Republican Senator, Mark Brown, the new lion of the Senate. His first victim? Martha Coakley. He came from behind and upset the supermajority that the democrats have enjoyed and also upsetting the one year anniversary of President Obama’s inauguration.

Well done Mr. Senator Brown!

[BlogLord Comment]:
Thank You
Massachusetts!

CATAGORIES: COMMENTARY,HUMOR,MILITARY,REAL HEROES — FloridaBill @ 10:08 am

Especially for any who doubt the grit of the ‘younger generation’. American troops are as tough as ever. Those of you who already knew better, pass it on.

For those of you who are non-golfers, David Feherty is an irreverent TV golf analyst. An Irishman and former touring professional, he has a whimsical and often sarcastic view of the world and of professional golf. This article is particularly good. I don’t know where we get these kids he speaks about, but bless them, and thank God they are on our side.
