Thanks for posting. It's a wake-up.

I have the rubble of several brick walls in my rear view mirror....and some intact ones in front of me.....I hope the universe gives me enough time to bash a few more of them down before my time is up.

Thanks Peter....Now DROP & give me 20!!!!! Wink

The brick walls are there for a reason. They are there to let us prove how badly we want things.

Wow! Peter. Thanks so much for posting this link.

(Unfortunately, streaming WMV. Warning: hilarious jokes about dying.)
