And just like that.....

Yesterday on my way to work my mother was listening to NPR on the radio. I usually don't have a problem with NPR but yesterday's topic worked every nerve in my entire body. No, they weren't talking about the debt crisis, or public education, or the war, or the economy, or any of the other millions of issues America is facing right now...they were discussing Marc Anthony and JLo getting divorced! o__O Say What?!?!?! Yes, ladies and gentlemen the topic was the divorce of an entertainment couple! I have always wondered why the world makes these personal/private issues their business! Now, I understand that once you move into that realm a majority of your life becomes public (a reason why I don't think I could ever be about that life!) If JLO and Anthony decided amongst the two of them that marriage was not working for them then that should be between them.

That's the clever saying expressing how worlds apart men and women are. Now I'm not about to sit here and pretend that women are confusing. Because damn it we are!

Any one who knows anything about the history of The University of Michigan understands the meaning of that quote. Bo Schembechler will is cemented in football tradition at The University of Michigan, as the winningest coach in Michigan history. He coached thousands of players while at Michigan so it didn't seem possible that he would remember one specific player and this is where my memory begins... Bo hasn't been coaching for a while but he was still very present on Michigan's campus. I as granted the opportunity to work with the recruitment staff. During this time I was introduced to this great man personally. I sat in his office in total awe! Not only because of his accomplishments but because he remembered who my father was. As soon as Bo heard my last name he was thrown into memories of my father and couldn't stop telling me how wonderful my father was. I will never forget that moment. I just wish I told him my hopes of becoming a coach. I would have loved to hear ...
