3am this morning I was reading about the remarkably caring and generous people of Gander Newfoundland who took in all the "plane people" diverted from their original destinations and the lifelong relationships it created.  ("look for the helpers in the crowd")

It's not every single day I think about 9/11 but I do think of it often, year 'round, and send thoughts to those who lost their lives or directly impacted and good juju to those, like Herm, who press on in their roles to help humankind no matter the circumstances.

It's all in the grind, Sizemore. Can't be too fine, can't be too coarse. This, my friend, is a science. I mean you're looking at the guy that believed all the commercials. You know, about the "be all you can be." I made coffee through Desert Storm. I made coffee through Panama while everyone else got to fight, got to be a Ranger.

Thank you!
