Song of the Week: Born to Run
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IxuThNgl3YA

Quote of the Week:
There will be days when I don’t know if I can run a marathon. There will be a lifetime knowing that I have.
Do or do not. There is no try.
Only those who will risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go.
There are clubs you can’t belong to, neighborhoods you wont live in, Schools you can’t get into,
But the roads are always open.
