Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure, than to take rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much because they live in the grey twilight that knows neither victory nor defeat. --- Theodore Roosevelt

The US Chamber hosted a breakfast with congressman Ralph Hall at the Maggiano's Little Italy. He was presented the US Chamber's coveted Spirit of Enterprise Award. The congressman has a great sense of humor. Here is a great laugh: Faith is a little city in Rockwall county, the population stayed a constant of 79 people over 100 years. The trick? Everytime a baby is born, a guy left town. Here is another one: a guy was told that the sheriff is hiring a deputy so he came to the office to apply. He was asked: "what is one and one?" He put together two forefingers, one from each hand and answered, "it's eleven." The sheriff said: "not exactly the answer I was looking for but not exactly wrong either." Question: "what are two days of the week that start with a T." Answer: "Today and Tomorrow." The sheriff again said: "not exactly the answer I was looking for but not exactly wrong either." Question: "what is illegal?" Answer: "Ill egal, that's one sick bird." Same comment from the sheriff: "not exactly the answer I was looking for but not exactly wrong either." Last question, "who killed Abraham Lincoln?" Asnwer: "I have no idea." He went back to the barber shop and his friends asked him how it went? Well, it went ok and they already gave me a murder case to solve.
