  it was 22 years ago tonight that john lennon died, gunned down by an insane fan, mark david chapman.

  i was making brownies and my first husband was watching monday night football.

  he called me to the living room and i heard howard cosell make the announcement.

  I feel the way you feel, Animal. But just for kicks... I would like to have magic powers so that I could: Communicate fluently with all living things. Have the powers of different creatures... You know, water respiration, super speed, flight. And of course I would have Jesus powers to perform miracles and start a grassroots religious movement.

  i've noticed quite a few good quotes when people post.

  here is my favorite quote that means something to me: - .

  "our lives begin to end, the day we become silent, about things that matter"

  "Such a spirit who has become free stands amid the cosmos with a joyous and trusting fatalism, in the faith that only the particular is loathsome, and that all is redeemed and affirmed in the whole--he does not negate anymore. Such a faith, however, is the highest of all possible faiths: I have baptized it with the name of Dionysus."

  Awww, Lilacs! I am happy that you see the beauty in such things

  Here is a funny picture I took yesterday...my dog was bouncing around licking the snow and I just had to capture that moment to send to my brother away at college.

  I thought I had it bad having to shovel all day, but it sounds like you really had to rough it!

  ESSE QUAM VIDERI. To be, rather than to seem. So many focus on appearance, when the imperative is health. I would much rather be healthy than seem healthy.

  stop choosing to be overweight .

  if you are obese, you're putting your health at risk.

  you need to take control of your weight to reduce the possibility of suffering serious complications.
