Whats in a name?
What's in a name? That which we call a roseBy any other word would smell as sweet."
--From Romeo and Juliet (II, ii, 1-2)
I don’t know nothin about no Billy Shakespeare but I do know something about what sounds weird.
When we were on our trip to Orlando was during the same time that the Arena Football League was having their championship game.
The Orlando Predators were taking part in this game and the local news station was interviewing fans at a local sports grill. This is when a fan says,
“Orlando loves their Predators!”
A predator is an animal or other organism (such as a wolf) that hunts and kills other organisms, called prey, for food in an act called predation.
I knew what she meant but an animal on the hunt was not what came to my mind but some sicko on my space pretending to be 16 and the captain of the football team to meet young girls.
I don’t want to see the mascot for that helmet and Orlando; you can have all of Oklahoma’s predators.

Dreams do come true!

Disney World is supposed to be where dreams come true and they did just 22 years late.
We were riding the monorail train out of the happiest place on Earth when we came to a stop. We were told that we had to wait on another train to unload.
As we sat there chit chatting about our day and listening to the people in the other cabin talk it hit me. My dream that I had in junior high had come true. I was stuck in a room with a group of junior high girls. This was not how I imagined it and I realized this might have been a dream of mine in junior high but know as an adult that it is one of my nightmares. We were stuck in there for as one of the jh girls put it “like 20 hours”. It was more like 20 minutes, which was long enough, trust me.
Be careful what you dream. It might come true 22 years later.
