Fire Fighters

Today I was in Bonita Springs visiting my accountant. Him and his wife are like my 2nd mom and dad. On my way back home, I saw a Fire Station, so I stopped in. I like to talk to the Fire Fighters and thank them for the job they do for us and let them know just how important they are to the community. I was really taken back by the response I got. They were so appreciative of me going there and thanking them that they almost glowed. Their smiles were from ear to ear. Funny, it was people like them that saved my life when I had my Cerebral Hemorrhage, I was thanking them, but they made me feel like I was doing them a great favor.

It's people like them that show you just how great life can be! They run to danger when everybody else is running away from it. They go to car and motorcycle accidents to stabilize the injured and rush them to the hospital. They take your blood pressure anytime you show up at the station, and they do many other things that we aren't even aware of. I can tell you one thing, if you are hurt, and there is a fire fighter or paramedic near by, on or off duty, they will do everything possible to help you or anybody else.

When you see a fire fighter or paramedic on the street, thank them for what they do, you never know one day it may be you or somebody you know that they are saving. They are a very humble group of people that set the standards that we should live our lives by. If you know a fire fighter or a paramedic, please send them this e-mail so that they know that there are people out there that care and appreciate them. And if you are a fire fighter or a paramedic, I would like to thank you for being a part of a group that helped to save my life, you are true "American Hero's."

How imporant is the Smile?

Just how important is the smile for you? Is it just something you do out of habit, does it mean anything to you? I'm here to tell you that the smile has saved my life! I know that's a bold statement, but after you learn more about me and what I am doing, you just might think I'm crazier than you first thought. See I'm one of those people that you hear about and you wonder is this guy for real? Yes I am! I will do all kinds of off the wall things just to get a smile. I tell bad jokes and laugh at them, I will sing in an elevator ( people can't wait to get off), I walk up to people in the streets and start conversations, I Smile and Wave at cars going by, and take trips to Coconut Grove in Miami Fl. in a Rabbit suit. What? Huh? Whoa. No, you don't need glasses I did write that I go to the Grove in a BIG WHITE Rabbit Suit and help people to Smile.

Now why in the world would I do this? The fact of the matter is that it helps people. As I walk around the Grove I meet all kinds of people, each with their own personality and we get to have some fun together. We laugh, we play we joke and we talk about the lighter side of life. Some people just stare and wonder what this nut is doing (I sometimes wounder myself) but you know I really enjoy it. I'll be getting into the whole story about how it started and what it has done for me and others as I continue this blog. The message I would like to get out to you right now is that the Smile is very, very, very important. This is a time that so many people are finding it harder and harder to find something to Smile about and I want to do something about it! Will you join me in my quest to help America to Smile?
