Great speech. “3/4 of a glass of captain morgan and a dash of diet coke”. I’m going to have to try that the next time I have to speak in front of a crowd.
I get the selfish part too. I carry jumper cables and always have my eye out in parking lots for people with dead batteries. Nothing more fun than giving someone a jump when it is pouring rain and they have a car full of crying kids. My son thought I was a little crazy but I told him he would feel good all day after we did it. Afterwards he agreed.

Joey, you ARE infectious! and you have a HUGE heart. For those of us who have chosen to live in Glosta (transplants) it’s everything you said about it. Glosta is: a wonderful town and there are many terrific people (and, yes, even “characters”) in it. It’s like no other place I’ve ever visited or lived in. GMG is a daily dose of showing us all — those born here, and those who chose to live here — what we have to be thankful for. And you, Joey, are in the TOP 10 things we all have to be thankful for!
