Simple acts of kindness

The simple acts of kindness are simply God's way of opening peoples eyes. The New York taxi driver returning all the diamond rings, to me, speaks volumes..
Can you imagine finding diamonds?? Can you see yourself giving them back?? The poll I took on AOL this morning shows that 70% of the polled would return them. The lady from my home state and only 15 miles from me in Dallas, just tipped him .30 cents!! To me that is not like Texans, we are very generous to say the least. So the 100.00$ she gave him for returning the jewelry was not a tip, but reward for the return of her diamonds. I believe Osman Chowdhury did this not for what he would get out of it, he did so because it was the right thing to do.. I applauded you Osman, and showing the world that New York taxi drivers are not what we perceive them to be. You and drivers like you are seldom heard about. I wanted to give you credit where it was due...

United93: Stupid news about a stupid movie.

9/11 | movies | United93

In reviewing the news today, and trying to catch up on the many exciting events that happened in the world while I wasn't paying attention, I came across this article:

"Actor in 9/11 Film Denied Access Into US"

Shocking? I think not. I recall recently having a conversation with my wife about how the little-known actors chosen to depict the "terrorists" in the United 93 movie are basically screwed for the rest of their lives. If anyone actually sees the movie (which I hope they don't, as discussed in my blog from a few weeks ago), the actors faces will be instantly recognizable by TSA agents, law enforcement officers, and just regular people on the street.

But oh well, right? They're doing our country a service by honoring the supposed victims of Flight 93 (which...ahem...is the topic of a future blog).
