AIM HIGH!


A college professor prepared a final exam for his students. The test questions were divided into three categories, and the students were instructed to choose questions from only one of the categories. The first category of questions was the hardest and worth fifty points. The second, which was easier, was worth forty points. The third, the simplest, was worth thirty points.

Upon completion of the test, students who had chosen the hardest fifty-point questions were given As. The students who had chosen the forty-point questions received Bs. Those who had settled for the easiest thirty-pointers were given Cs.

Some of the students were frustrated with the grading of their papers and asked the professor what he was looking for. The professor leaned over the podium, smiled, and explained, 'I wasn’t testing your book knowledge. I was testing your aim.'"

Robert Kriegel put it this way: "The key is to have a dream that inspires you to go beyond your limits."

No walking today Kathy. Just trying to get some things put away since the wedding. I can hear thunder in the distance.

Fingers crossed and a quick prayer that you get good, safe rain.

Progress is good. Is the coat rack strong enough now to hold backpacks, or did you find another place for them?

Fredd is fine. He isn’t barking. Yet I will find out when people come into town. I have taught him to speak, so he will when I ask.

It is amazing how fast snow melts isn’t it? Take care, and of course God Bless!

((HUGS))

Thank you so much. Our Veterans are special and need to know that they are not forgotten and that we appreciate their service to our country.
