JUST FOR TODAY
As I go through some "troubles" in my own life, I've worked out this "formula" to help me be a useful and happy person. See if it doesn't work for you!
JUST FOR TODAY: I will try to live through this day only, and not tackle my whole life problem at once.
JUST FOR TODAY: I will be happy. I will assume to be true what Abraham Lincoln said: "Most folks are as happy as they make up their minds to be."
JUST FOR TODAY: I will try to strengthen my mind. I will study. I will learn something useful. I will read something that requires effort, thought and concentration.
JUST FOR TODAY: I will adjust myself to what is, and not try to adjust everything to my own desires.
JUST FOR TODAY: I will exercise my soul in three ways: I will do somebody a good turn, and not get found out. I will do at least two things I don't want to do just for exercise. I will not show anyone that my feelings are hurt; they may be hurt, but today I will not show it.
JUST FOR TODAY: I will be agreeable. I will look as well as I can, dress becomingly, talk low, act courteously, criticize not one bit, not find fault with anything, and not try to improve or regulate anybody but myself.
JUST FOR TODAY: I will have a program. I may not follow it exactly, but I will have lt. I will save myself from two pests: hurry and indecision.
JUST FOR TODAY: I will have a quiet half hour all by myself. During this half hour, I will try and get a better perspective of my life.
JUST FOR TODAY: I will be unafraid. Especially I will not be afraid to enjoy what is beautiful, and to believe that as I give to the world, so the world will give back to me.

LOL My uncle Rocky used to have one of those old school projectors. The one with the big red, green, blue and yellow lights in the front. It was very hi tech back in the day. Picture quality wasnt very good on it either.
Thanks for this link though, it'll be a loooooooong time before I would feel comfortable making a purchase like that.

"Bill Bickner" moment and give the game to the Eagles. It's quite possible. This is just a nail bitter of a game.
To: Bethbg79
a grand is a lot of money but cheaper than big screens and these projectors out perform most big sreens.
The key is DLP get DLP Digital Light Processing

I take one with me in a very small case (smaller than my laptop but thicker) for presentations all the time when I'm speaking. It's very easy to use and very handy. We have them in most of our classrooms.
