Interesting story since we just watched the Super Bowl

In a supermarket, Kurtis the stock boy, was busily working when a new voice came over the loud speaker asking for a carry out at register 4. Kurtis was almost finished, and wanted to get some fresh air, and decided to answer the call. As he approached the check-out stand a distant smile caught his eye, the new check-out girl was beautiful. She was an older woman (maybe 26 and he was only 22) and he fell in love.

Later that day, after his shift was over, he waited by the punch clock to find out her name. She came into the break room, smiled softly at him, took her card and punched out, then left. He looked at her card, BRENDA. He walked out only to see her start walking up the road. Next day, he waited outside as she left the supermarket, and offered her a ride home. He looked harmless enough, and she accepted. When he dropped her off, he asked if maybe he could see her again, outside of work. She simply said it wasn’t possible.

He pressed and she explained she had two children and she couldn’t afford a baby-sitter, so he offered to pay for the baby-sitter. Reluctantly she accepted his offer for a date for the following Saturday. That Saturday night he arrived at her door only to have her tell him that she was unable to go with him. The baby-sitter had called and canceled. To which Kurtis simply said, “Well, let’s take the kids with us.”

She tried to explain that taking the children was not an option, but again not taking no for an answer, he pressed. Finally Brenda brought him inside to meet her children. She had an older daughter who was just as cute as a bug, Kurtis thought, and then Brenda brought out her son, in a wheelchair. He was born a paraplegic with Down Syndrome.

Kurtis asked Brenda, “I still don’t understand why the kids can’t come with us?” Brenda was amazed. Most men would run away from a woman with two kids, especially if one had disabilities – just like her first husband and father of her children had done. Kurtis was not ordinary – – – he had a different mindset.

That evening Kurtis and Brenda loaded up the kids, went to dinner and the movies. When her son needed anything Kurtis would take care of him. When he needed to use the restroom, he picked him up out of his wheelchair, took him and brought him back. The kids loved Kurtis. At the end of the evening, Brenda knew this was the man she was going to marry and spend the rest of her life with. A year later, they were married and Kurtis adopted both of her children. Since then they have added two more kids.

So what happened to Kurtis the stock boy and Brenda the check-out girl? Well, Mr. & Mrs. Kurt Warner now live in Arizona. If you tune in on 1 February, you can watch him quarterback the Arizona Cardinals in the Super Bowl against the Pittsburgh Steelers! Is this a surprise ending or could you have guessed that he was not an ordinary person? Some athletes are also great people.

It should be noted that he also quarterbacked the Rams in Super Bowl XXXVI. He has also been the NLF’s Most Valuable Player twice and the Super Bowl’s MVP. On Sunday, 1 Feb I’ll be rooting for Kurt and the Cards. It’s a shame they didn’t win but he’s already a winner in my book.

Do you eat healthy?

I try very hard to eat healthy every day.  Some days it’s not that easy when it’s a super busy day though.  Like sometimes at work if we have to work late, they’ll order out something and it’s not usually the best things if you know what I mean.  I love Reds and Sweet Tender GreensTM.  They are the best salads you can buy I think.

Not only are they good, they are really good for you.  They have two new salads available but my favorite is Reds and Sweet Tender GreensTM..  You know how if your food looks good, it tastes better?  Well this is really a pretty salad that’s also good for you.

They’re full of phytonutrients which in plain English means they are full of plant-based nutrients.  These types of nutrients help to boost immunity and provide antioxidant protection.  They also promote promote eye health too.  Just check out their new web site for all the information you need to learn more about the benefits of phytonutrients.  You won’t be sorry you did.

When did it start paying to do something stupid or illegal?

Kara Walton, of Claymont, Delaware sued the owner of a night club in a nearby city because she fell from the bathroom window to the floor, knocking out her two front teeth. Even though Ms. Walton was trying to sneak through the ladies room window to avoid paying the $3.50 cover charge, the jury said the night club had to pay her $12,000 …oh, yeah, plus dental expenses. Go figure.

This is part of what’s wrong with our so called ‘Legal system’.  It’s also why our insurance is so darn high too.

No I did not watch the Super Bowl

I like football.  Really I do but I didn’t watch the Super Bowl last night.  I already  knew that Pittsburgh would win but it would have been really nice if the Cardinals would have pulled off an upset.  It just wasn’t meant to be though.

I did get to see the commercials on the Internet today.  Some were pretty good like the Dorito’s commercial with the guy that the bus hits.  That was a good one.  The crystal ball one was pretty good too.  What the heck is SOBO?  That whole commercial was pretty out there and I don’t even know what the product is they were selling.  I loved the Budweiser horse bringing the huge stick.  That was really good.  Oh well, to each his own.

I am so into anything that helps me find my center

Life can really be hard at times like I was just discussing with you.  Well I have found a wonderful web based TV type program that will help to transform your life. No it’s not some guru standing up there teaching you to meditate but it is full of helpful programs.

I’m all for anything that helps me to find my center and that is what they site is all about.  It helps you to pay attention to your life and learn how to really live it.  If that sounds stupid to you, check it out anyway.  You just might learn something important about your life.  I did.

Here’s three in one!!

Idiots # 1: A pair of Michigan robbers entered a record shop nervously waving revolvers. The first one shouted, ‘Nobody move!’ When his partner moved, the startled first bandit shot him.

Idiot # 2: Arkansas: Seems this guy wanted some beer pretty badly. He decided that he’d just throw a cinder block through a liquor store window, grab some booze, and run. So he lifted the cinder block and heaved it over his head at the window. The cinder block bounced back knocking him unconscious. It seems the liquor store window was made of Plexi-Glass. The whole event was caught on videotape.

Last but not least: This person lives in a semi-rural area (Weyauwega, Wisconsin). They recently had a new neighbor call the local township administrative office to request the removal of the Deer Crossing sign on our road. The reason: ‘Too many deer are being hit by cars out here! – I don’t think this is a good place for them to be crossing anymore.’

I have no more but I’m sure there are more out there because they multiply!!

Is your life full of stress like mine?

I am one of those people that can handle stress up to a point.  Once I reach that point, look out!!  I heard about motivational keynote through the Stress Institute, and decided to check it out.  I was amazed at the information in it that really helped me a lot.

Everyone has stress like crazy right now between the stock market going up and down and layoffs left and right.  No one knows who’s next.  Take the time to check out this web site and see if it doesn’t help you out some too.  I bet it will.  It sure helped me out.

Boy this one is really ‘bright’

A man, wanting to rob a downtown Bank of America, walked into the Branch and wrote this, ‘Put all your muny in this bag.’ While standing in line, waiting to give his note to the teller, he began to worry that someone had seen him write the note and might call the police before he reached the teller’s window. So he left the Bank of America and crossed the street to the Wells Fargo Bank.

After waiting a few minutes in line, he handed his note to the Wells Fargo teller. She read it and, surmising from his spelling errors that he wasn’t the brightest light in the harbor, told him that she could not accept his stickup note because it was written on a Bank of America deposit slip and that he would either have to fill out a Wells Fargo deposit slip or go back to Bank of America.

Looking somewhat defeated, the man said, ‘OK’ and left. He was arrested a few minutes later, as he was waiting in line back at Bank of America.
