By the way, an interesting bit of trivia was revealed about the Silverdome - the state of the art stadium built in 1977 at a cost of $55 Million dollars and it was recently sold to a Canadian Developer for $585,000 - wow - talk about depreciation - that only about 1% of the original purchase price and it included 20 acres of land!...But that's another story.
Today is about giving thanks for all we have - no matter how little we may think it is. If we put it in perspective and just think for a moment how most of the world lives...we have a lot to be thankful for. If we stop and think about our wealth and compare it to previous generations of Americans...or citizens of the world...we have so much.
Most importantly though, I give thanks for my wife Sherri, who has been my inspiration since I first met her in 1996 - when she was only given 5 years to fight the rare cancer she was diagnosed with. Well, here it is 13 years later and I continue to give thanks. Yes, times are tough and no her health is anything but fine...but she is my role model and I love her so...
Here is a great video sang by Johnny Cash on the old TV show, Dr Quinn Medicine Woman...this pretty much sums up how I feel right now...
Merry Christmas!
