I caught the end of the Master's golf tournament at my sister's before Easter dinner. I'm not much of a spectator, but it was great sharing such a moving moment with my brother and sister. I was still teary eyed the next morning, after Bubba won and cried. It was a great story about a guy with a funny swing.
Then there was the death of Mike Wallace.....the guy with the "funny" way of making anyone squirm. The joke is the most feared words in the English language were "Mike Wallace is here to see you".

d peeps seem to be the topics around the cubicles today. I had way too much sugar this week-end. I can't believe I don't learn the lesson. I am a sugar addict. I mean when I start eating sugar, one teaspoon is too much and three bags of jelly beans is not enough. So the next morning, it's sugar hangover. There's plenty of evidence that sugar is toxic. Mike Wallace's program 60 minutes just last week-end highlighted the dangers.
You've been warned. Margo
