**** Sal, talk about Off-topic. That was exceptional. Most of us don't know how lucky we really are. I know I forget.

Thanks,
Jack

How goes the old sayings?? "...I once lamented that I had no shoes, until I met a man with no feet."

And the old Biblical Addage: "With Faith the size of a mustard seed, a man can move mountains."


Thanks Sal -- Because for this man: No Limbs at All, and with his life examples and message all around the globe for all to see... His Mountains Crumble Before Him.

I was lucky enough to see Nick Vujicic speak live at my church. He's an amazing man and probably one of the only few that could draw a tear out of me. I also had the honor to give the man a hug after this speech. He's so loving that he stays after his speeches and gives each and every one of his audience members a hug. We had close to over 300 last time I went. Thanks for the reminder Sal. Wonderful inspiration.
