    Wooooot!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :d
    “… the greatest detractor from high performance is fear: fear that you are not prepared, fear that you are in over your head, fear that you are not worthy, and ultimately, fear of failure. If you can eliminate that fear—not through arrogance or just wishing difficulties away, but through hard work and preparation—you will put yourself in an incredibly powerful position to take on the challenges you face" - Pete Carroll.

    I expect it's no surprise that there is a parallel between favorite and most respectful.....
    ...full immersion.....

    The entire board had the opportunity to vote, I simply added them up. As for your comment about the mods, unlike you, many here appreciate their efforts and contributions to the board. I'll take your comment as a compliment to my ability to choose staff that the board respects and likes.

    I must say, I believe the feeling is mutual.

    Jeff for President 2012!!!!!!


    Congrads to everyone for your contributions. There are some wonderful people on here. In my humble opinion however I would like to take the opportunity to thank the liberal types that come here and say that I admire your preseverance and stamina. Being sorely outnumbered, which I admit you are here, means you represent the minority of opinions, however, if it were not for you we would be nothing but a board full of one sighted folks and this would be nothing more than a chat room! So in essence, I salute you and look forward to your continued arrogance, opinionated views and dissention with opinions that I represent. Without you, we would have no conscience!

    Happy New Year everyone!
    If you continue to think the way you have always thought, you will continue to get what you have always got!

    A government big enough to provide you everything you need is big enough to take everything you have!

    Thanks to all who voted. And to the rumors that I was born in Kenya and therefore ineligible for a Jimmy award... well, you have no standing to question my life story!!!
