Most people would rather be unhappy than uncomfortable. That way they get to complain without having to change. Don't be most people. #ThinkBIGSundayWithMarsha #johnalanturnercoaching

I was watching the World Series with some friends Tuesday night. They did the whole standup to cancer thing and people were donating $5 to cancer research, and I had to remind them that they could just give me $5. #cancerpatienthumor

Super Sky Point to Fernando Valenzuela, who took America by storm during the Fernandomania summer of 1981 and led the Dodgers to a World Series triumph. Breathing through his eyelids like a lava lizard the whole way. Hand St. Peter a bat and give him the screwball, big guy. #RIP

Happy 100th birthday to Jimmy Carter, a man of character. A decent, kind, compassionate president who sought peace & justice. In his farewell address he pledged that once more he would return to the title superior to President—that of CITIZEN & what a stellar citizen he has been!
