What is your favorite College Team? Southern California quarterback John David Booty prepares to pass against Washington in the second half Saturday, Sept. 29, 2007, in Seattle. The Trojans (4-0, 2-0 Pac-10) committed three turnovers and 16 penalties -- their most in more than two seasons -- for 161 yards, plus had a missed a field goal and a blocked punt in a game played through a first-half drizzle. Yet they won for the 60th time in 64 games. USC won, 27-24. (AP Photo/Elaine Thompson) LSU receiver Brandon LaFell can't get away from Tulane cornerback Josh Lumar in the first half of their football game in the Superdome in New Orleans Saturday, Sept. 29, 2007. LSU was called for holding in the end zone resulting in a safety on the play. Tulane trailed only 10-9 at halftime and didn't fall more than one score behind until Hester's 1-yard touchdown run gave LSU a 20-9 lead with 5:53 remaining in the third quarter. LSU won 34-9.(AP Photo/Alex Brandon) Oklahoma wide receiver Juaquin Iglesias, bottom, dives to catch a pass as Colorado Benjamin Burney (42) defends during the fourth quarter at Folsom Field in Boulder, Colo., Saturday, Sept. 29, 2007. The pass was ruled incomplete after review and Oklahoma lost their first down. Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops envisioned it going down to the wire. Colorado's Dan Hawkins had a hunch his team would pull off the big upset.
Both coaches turned out to be correct and Hawkins' Buffaloes dealt a serious blow to the Sooners national title hopes when Kevin Eberhart kicked a career-long 45-yard field goal as time expired to send Colorado past No. 3 Oklahoma 27-24 on Saturday. (AP Photo/Jack Dempsey) Auburn's Mario Fannin (27) goes throught the Florida line with Floridia's Major Wright (21), Jacques Rickerson (23) and Brandon Spikes (51) trying to stop him in 2nd half between Florida and Auburn in Gainesville, Fla. Saturday, Sept. 29, 2007. Auburn defeated Florida, 20-17. Wes Byrum's 43-yard field goal as time expired lifted the Tigers to a 20-17 victory over No. 4 Florida on Saturday night and gave them one of the biggest upsets on a day filled with them.(AP Photo/Phil Sandlin) South Florida quarterback Matt Grothe (8) eludes a hit by West Virginia's Charles Pugh (15) during the second quarter Friday night Sept. 28, 2007, in Tampa, Fla. Grothe eventually threw a touchdown pass on the play. Grothe scrambled to avoid a sack before throwing a 55-yard touchdown pass to Carlton Mitchell, and Ben Moffitt returned one of his two interceptions 26 yards for a TD to lead a stellar defensive performance in the Big East opener. (AP Photo/Steve Nesius) Kansas State defensive end Ian Campbell, right, runs toward the goal line after intercepting a pass from Texas quarterback Colt McCoy and running it back 41 yards for the score during second quarter action Saturday, Sept. 29, 2007, in Austin, Texas. Kansas State scored three touchdowns on special teams and an interception, and the Wildcats stunned the No. 7 Longhorns 41-21, handing Texas coach Mack Brown his worst home defeat in 10 years. (AP Photo/Harry Cabluck) Ohio State's Kurt Coleman, left, and James Laurinaitis, right, bring down Minnesota running back Duane Bennett for a loss in the third quarter Saturday, Sept. 29, 2007, in Minneapolis. Ohio State turned in another well-rounded victory, staying unbeaten while several other top-ranked teams couldn't. Chris Wells rushed for 116 yards and two touchdowns, and the Ohio State defense didn't budge. (AP Photo/Jim Mone)

A mom was concerned about her kindergarten son walking to school. He didn’t want his mother to walk with him. She wanted to give him the feeling that he had some independence but yet know that he was safe.
So she had an idea of how to handle it. She asked a neighbour if she would please follow him to school in the mornings, staying at a distance, so he probably wouldn’t notice her. She said that since she was up early with her toddler anyway, it would be a good way for them to get some exercise as well, so she agreed.
The next school day, the neighbour and her little girl set out following behind Timmy as he walked to school with another neighbour boy he knew. She did this for the whole week.
As the boys walked and chatted, kicking stones and twigs, Timmy’s little friend noticed the same lady was following them as she seemed to do every day all week. Finally he said to Timmy, “Have you noticed that lady following us to school all week? Do you know her?”
Timmy nonchalantly replied, “Yeah, I know who she is.”
The friend said, “Well, who is she?”
“That’s just Shirley Goodnest,” Timmy replied, “and her daughter Marcy.”
“Shirley Goodnest? Who the heck is she and why is she following us? “
“Well,” Timmy explained, “every night my Mom makes me say the 23rd Psalm with my prayers, ‘cuz she worries about me so much. And in the Psalm, it says, ‘Shirley Goodnest and Marcy shall follow me all the days of my life’, so I guess I’ll just have to get used to it!”
