Emily, congratulations!  You certainly follow in your parents' footsteps--hard work, determination, and doing good works in the community. 

Craig and Shelly, congratulations to you too.  I know accomplishments like this by your child are amazing to watch, but they come only because of the excellent examples set by the parents.  You two are to be congratulated on raising such a fine young woman.

Hang in there all of you and just keep eating Craig.  Our prayers continue for your improved health.

And, now, it's apparently time for some humor.  I just want everyone out there who doesn't really know me to understand that I don't go looking for this stuff--it just finds me.  It just shows up in my inbox; I don't know what that means because I don't THINK I'm a redneck.  But, regardless, I can't help but laugh.  So I continue in my tradition of passing along the always interesting redneck humor (I still think the Redneck Onstar was the VERY best, though).

love to all, deb

Earl continues slowly sipping his beer, then thoughtfully says,




"You better think it over - women like that are hard to find."
