It was better for me to transfer here with everything I learned. I feel free here; I'm doing my thing.

I'm glad we got this far because we were the underdogs the whole way. We had to work for everything we got. I'm happy for Roosevelt.

We'd love to see Roosevelt again, if we get that far. It's 1-1, and either one of us could break the tie.

It's cool to share it with them.

I don't know about you, but I've saved cards that old high school flames wrote me as well as those that employees have written me over the years. The power of genuine, customized appreciation will never lose its value, even in a gloomy economy... in fact, it's probably what we're all thirsty for in this desert of a depression.

Feeling good about your life, but not expressing a heartfelt 'thank you,' is like wrapping a gift for someone and never giving it to them.
