PENGUINS STAY ALIVE FORCE GAME 6, AWARDS BANQUET TONIGHT




The Pittsburgh Penguins scored a goal with 35 seconds left in the game after they had pulled there goalie to tie the game at 3 and force overtime and went on to win the game in the 3rd overtime 4-3. With the win the Penguins force a game 6 Wednesday night in Pittsburgh. The Red Wings and there fans thought they were going to win the Stanley Cup in the final minute of last nights game before the Penguins stunned them. The Penguins goalie Marc-Andre Fleury was definitely the difference in last nights game. The Colonial Heights High School spring sports awards banquet will be held tonight at the high school, I understand that they are going to be serving turkey for dinner which isn't good for me because of my gout situation. Enjoy todays weather in the mid to upper 80's because after today it looks like it is going to be in the 90's for at least the next 5 days with increasing humidity. Scott has it been hot down in Georgia? The field is now set for next weekends NCAA baseball super regionals, Georgia beat Georgia Tech last night to advance where they will play NC State next weekend, the ACC will have 4 teams in the final 16 which isn't to bad. I guess I will be rooting for Georgia and Coastal Carolina next weekend. MICKEY

To guarantee success, act as if it were impossible to fail.

Lighten your load
If you are feeling tired and weary, perhaps now would be a good time to lighten your load. There are many burdens you can get rid of that you'll easily be able to do without.

Start by abandoning all your resentments. Each resentment costs an enormous amount of time and energy, and provides absolutely nothing of value in return.

Next, you can walk away from your anxiety. All the anxiety in the world cannot add a single positive moment to your life.

Pick up the pace by letting go of the need to prove that you're right. Instead, use the time and energy to more effectively listen and understand.

While you're at it, go ahead and leave behind your envy, anger, impatience and frustration. After all, what have they ever done for you?

Dropping the burdensome negativity from your life is ridiculously easy once you realize how much it's all holding you back. Lighten your load, and move quickly to where you truly wish to be.
-- Ralph Marston
