Jordan - Lauren's Oogie Boogie post reminded me of this old story..
There once was a man in Japan who swept roads for his living. One day he was sitting with his friend and said to him, "Do you know that I've had this broom for 17 years? This broom is my best and oldest companion". The friend was amazed, "17 Years? That's a very old broom!". The road sweeper explained, "Yes it is! And I've only had to change the handle 5 times and the brush 8 times.

Jeff,
I remember that story, thanks for bringing it up it brought a smile to my face and warmed my heart.
Thanks for your fellowship,
Jordan
I'll let you know...I am having him for dinner tonight.
Molly,
I think that might bug me.
I'm starting to eat some Oogie Boogie pasta right now!
Have fun with that, I'll stick to the oatmeal for the moment.
In every way!
And how is that?
