Today is the 106th anniversary of the first manned flight!! Also the DC-3 shares this day as its birthday. Perhaps Boeing should have waited two days to fly the Dreamliner on the anniversary of flight!

For my 5,000th post, I share this beautifully written thought w/my fellow B:rolleyes:Xizens:
(It was written in 1513, by the way). I salute you. I am your friend, and my love for you goes deep. There is nothing I can give you which you have not. But there is much, very much, that, while I cannot give it, you can take. No heaven can come to us unless our hearts find rest in it today. Take heaven! No peace lies in the future which is not hidden in this present little instant. Take peace! The gloom of the world is but a shadow. Behind it, yet within our reach, is joy. There is radiance and glory in darkness, could we but see. And to see, we have only to look. I beseech you to look! Life is so generous a giver. But we, judging its gifts by their covering, cast them away as ugly or heavy or hard. Remove the covering, and you will find beneath it a living splendor, woven of love by wisdom, with power. Welcome it, grasp it, and you touch the angel's hand that brings it to you. Everything we call a trial, a sorrow or a duty, believe me, that angel's hand is there. The gift is there and the wonder of an overshadowing presence. Your joys, too, be not content with them as joys. They, too, conceal diviner gifts. Life is so full of meaning and purpose, so full of beauty beneath its covering, that you will find earth but cloaks your heaven. Courage then to claim it; that is all! But courage you have, and the knowledge that we are pilgrims together, wending through unknown country home. And so, at this time, I greet you, not quite as the world sends greetings, but with profound esteem and with the prayer that for you, now and forever, the day breaks and shadows flee away. ~ Fra Giovanni ~ |

Well this is an easy one today, and it does not even close to doing it justice, but we stand on ceremony nonetheless, I humbly offer the above the good ol' ^^

Don't hate on Taco Bell. Many a hangover was cured in college by their bean burritos.
