                    LIFE LESSON: 
Jaime Rodriguez, a schoolteacher in Chicago, Ill., was named as the worst offender on the city’s list of employees with unpaid parking tickets. After checking into things, he discovered it was actually his 26-year-old son, also named Jaime, who had run up $11,040
in unpaid tickets.

                    At the age of 3 years old, our family lived with my maternal grandparents while my father was in seminary.  One day the kid living next-door to us came up to me and said, “Greg Fisher I am going to give you a bloody nose.”  The next thing that happened—when he did, in fact, punch me in the

                    I learned a great life lesson once from some scraggly college kid whose name I don’t even know. I was 8 or 9 years old and was taking swimming lessons from the Red Cross. The day came for our swim test to pass from Advanced Beginners to Intermediate, and we each took our turn trying to do the

                    swimming lessons.
When I was about six years old I took swimming lessons one summer.
Remember, what it was like?
I was scared – but it wasn’t so bad.
Start by blowing bubbles, splashing in the pool, Dog paddle,
Pushing off from the side of the pool.
